Luke 16:21-23
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
21 who would gladly have eaten his fill of the scraps that fell from the rich man’s table. Dogs even used to come and lick his sores. 22 When the poor man died, he was carried away by angels to the bosom of Abraham. The rich man also died and was buried, 23 and from the netherworld,[a] where he was in torment, he raised his eyes and saw Abraham far off and Lazarus at his side.
