Die Elenden sollen essen, das sie satt werden; und die nach den HErrn fragen, werden ihn preisen; euer Hertz sol ewiglich leben.

Luke 16.19–31

And there was a rich man, who clothed himself in purple and costly linen, and lived every day off the fat of the land. And there was a poor man with the name Lazarus, who laid at his gate, full of sores, and desired to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: but the dogs came and licked his sores. And it came to pass, that the poor man died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; as he was now in hell and in torment, he lifted up his eyes, and saw Abraham from afar, and Lazarus in his bosom. [He] cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I suffer pain in this flame. But Abraham said, remember, son, that you received your good things in your lifetime, and Lazarus in contrast received evil things: but now he will be comforted, and you will be tormented. And upon all this, between us and you a great divide has been fixed: so that they who would want to go from here to you cannot; nor can they go from there to us.
