Luke 16:16-23

¹⁶The law and the prophets till to John; from that time the realm of God is evangelized or is preached, and each man doeth violence into it.

¹⁷Forsooth it is lighter (for) heaven and earth to pass (away), than that one tittle fall from the law. (For it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one dot to fall away from the Law.)

¹⁸Every man that forsaketh his wife, and weddeth another, doeth lechery or doeth adultery; and he that weddeth the wife forsaken of the husband, doeth adultery, (or and he who weddeth the wife left by her husband, doeth adultery).

¹⁹There was a rich man, and (he) was clothed in purple, and white silk, and ate every day shiningly.

²⁰And there was a beggar, Lazarus by name, that lay at his gate full of boils,

²¹and coveted to be fulfilled of the crumbs +or coveting to be filled with the crumbs, that fell down from the rich man’s board (or table), and no man gave to him; but (the) hounds came, and licked his boils.

²²And it was done, that the beggar died, and was borne of (the) angels (or was carried by the angels) into Abraham’s bosom. And the rich man was dead also, and was buried in hell.

²³And he raised up his eyes, when he was in torments, and saw Abraham afar, and Lazarus in his bosom.
