యిర్మీయా 36

1 యూదారాజైన యోషీయా కుమారుడగు యెహో యాకీము నాలుగవ సంవత్సరమున యెహోవా వాక్కు యిర్మీయాకు ప్రత్యక్షమై యీలాగు సెలవిచ్చెను

2 ​నీవు పుస్తకపుచుట్ట తీసికొని నేను నీతో మాటలాడిన దినము మొదలుకొని, అనగా యోషీయా కాలము మొదలుకొని నేటివరకు ఇశ్రాయేలువారినిగూర్చియు యూదావారిని గూర్చియు సమస్త జనములను గూర్చియు నేను నీతో పలికిన మాటలన్నిటిని దానిలో వ్రాయుము.

3 ​నేను యూదా వారికి చేయనుద్దేశించు కీడంతటినిగూర్చి వారు విని నేను వారి దోషమును వారి పాపమును క్షమించునట్లు తమ దుర్మార్గతను విడిచి పశ్చాత్తాపపడుదురేమో.

4 యిర్మీయా నేరీయా కుమారుడైన బారూకును పిలువనంపగా అతడు యెహోవా యిర్మీయాతో చెప్పిన మాటలన్నిటిని యిర్మీయా నోటిమాటలనుబట్టి ఆ పుస్తకములో వ్రాసెను.

5 యిర్మీయా బారూకునకు ఈలాగు ఆజ్ఞ ఇచ్చెనునేను యెహోవా మందిరములోనికి రాకుండ నిర్బంధింపబడితిని.

6 కాబట్టి నీవు వెళ్లి ఉపవాసదినమున యెహోవా మందిరములో ప్రజలకు వినబడునట్లు నేను చెప్పగా నీవు పుస్తకములో వ్రాసిన యెహోవా మాటలను చదివి వినిపించుము, తమ పట్టణములనుండి వచ్చు యూదా జనులందరికిని వినబడు నట్లుగా వాటిని చదివి వినిపింపవలెను.

7 ఒకవేళ వారి విన్నపములు యెహోవా దృష్టికి అనుకూలమగునేమో, ఒక వేళ వారు తమ చెడుమార్గము విడుతురేమో, నిజముగా ఈ ప్రజలమీదికి ఉగ్రతయు మహా కోపమును వచ్చునని యెహోవా ప్రకటించియున్నాడు.

8 ప్రవక్తయైన యిర్మీయా తనకు ఆజ్ఞ ఇచ్చినట్టు నేరీయా కుమారుడైన బారూకు గ్రంథము చేతపట్టుకొని యెహోవా మాటలన్నిటిని యెహోవా మందిరములో చదివి వినిపించెను.

9 యూదారాజైన యోషీయా కుమారుడగు యెహో యాకీము ఏలుబడియందు అయిదవ సంవత్సరము తొమి్మదవ నెలను యెరూషలేములోనున్న ప్రజలందరును యూదా పట్టణములలోనుండి యెరూషలేమునకు వచ్చిన ప్రజలందరును యెహోవాపేరట ఉపవాసము చాటింపగా

10 బారూకు యెహోవా మందిరములో లేఖికుడైన షాఫాను కుమారుడైన గెమర్యా గదికి పైగానున్న శాలలో యెహోవా మందిరపు క్రొత్త ద్వారపు ప్రవేశమున ప్రజలందరు వినునట్లు యిర్మీయా చెప్పిన మాటలను గ్రంథములోనుండి చదివి వినిపించెను.

11 ​షాఫాను కుమారు డైన గెమర్యా కుమారుడగు మీకాయా ఆ గ్రంథములోని యెహోవా మాటలన్నిటిని విని

12 రాజనగరులోనున్న లేఖికుని గదిలోనికి వెళ్లగా ప్రధానులందరును లేఖికుడైన ఎలీషామా షెమాయా కుమారుడైన దెలాయ్యా అక్బోరు కుమారుడైన ఎల్నాతాను షాఫాను కుమారుడైన గెమర్యా హనన్యా కుమారుడైన సిద్కియా అనువారును ప్రధాను లందరును అక్కడ కూర్చుండి యుండిరి.

13 బారూకు ప్రజలందరికి వినబడునట్లు ఆ పుస్తకములోనుండి చదివి వినిపించిన మాటలన్నిటిని మీకాయా వారికి తెలియ జెప్పగా

14 ప్రధానులందరు కూషీకి ఇనుమనుమడును షెలె మ్యాకు మనుమడును నెతన్యాకు కుమారుడునైన యెహూ దిని బారూకు నొద్దకు పంపినీవు ప్రజల వినికిడిలో చది విన పుస్తకమును చేత పట్టుకొని రమ్మని ఆజ్ఞ నియ్యగా నేరీయా కుమారుడగు బారూకు ఆ గ్రంథమును చేత పట్టుకొని వచ్చెను.

15 అతడు రాగా వారునీవు కూర్చుండి మాకు వినిపింపుమనగా బారూకు దాని చదివి వినిపించెను.

16 వారు ఆ మాటలన్నిటిని విన్నప్పుడు భయపడి యొకరి నొకరు చూచుకొనిమేము నిశ్చయముగా ఈ మాట లన్నిటిని రాజునకు తెలియజెప్పెదమని బారూకుతో ననిరి.

17 మరియుఈ మాటలన్నిటిని అతడు చెప్పు చుండగా నీవు ఎట్లు వ్రాసితివి? అది మాకు తెలియజెప్పు మని వారడుగగా

18 బారూకు అతడు నోటనుండియే యీ మాటలన్నిటిని పలుకగా నేను పుస్తకములో వాటిని సిరాతో వ్రాసితినని వారితో ఉత్తరమిచ్చెను.

19 నీవును యిర్మీయాయును పోయి దాగియుండుడి, మీరున్నచోటు ఎవరికిని తెలియజేయవద్దని ఆ ప్రధానులు చెప్పి

20 ​శాలలో నున్న రాజునొద్దకు తామే వెళ్లి ఆ మాటలన్నిటిని రాజు చెవులలో వినిపించిరి గాని ఆ పుస్తకపుచుట్టను లేఖికుడైన ఎలీషామా గదిలో దాచిపెట్టిరి.

21 ఆ గ్రంథమును తెచ్చు టకు రాజు యెహూదిని పంపగా అతడు లేఖికుడైన ఎలీ షామా గదిలోనుండి దాని తీసికొని వచ్చి రాజు వినికిడి లోను రాజనొద్దకు నిలిచియున్న అధిపతులందరి వినికిడి లోను దాని చదివెను.

22 తొమి్మదవ మాసమున రాజు శీత కాలపు నగరులో కూర్చుండియుండగా అతని ముందర కుంపటిలో అగ్ని రగులుచుండెను.

23 ​యెహూది మూడు నాలుగు పుటలు చదివిన తరువాత రాజు చాకుతో దాని కోసి కుంపటిలో వేయగా ఆ కుంపటిలో నున్న అగ్నిచేత అది బొత్తిగా కాలిపోయెను గాని

24 ​రాజైనను ఈ మాట లన్నిటిని వినిన యతని సేవకులలో ఎవరైనను భయపడ లేదు, తమ బట్టలు చింపుకొనలేదు.

25 గ్రంథమును కాల్చవద్దని ఎల్నాతానును దెలాయ్యాయును గెమర్యా యును రాజుతో మనవిచేయగా అతడు వారి విజ్ఞాపనము వినకపోయెను.

26 లేఖికుడైన బారూకును ప్రవక్తయైన యిర్మీయాను పట్టుకొనవలెనని రాజవంశస్థుడగు యెరహ్మె యేలునకును అజ్రీయేలు కుమారుడైన శెరాయాకును అబ్దె యేలు కుమారుడైన షెలెమ్యాకును రాజు ఆజ్ఞాపించెను గాని యెహోవా వారిని దాచెను.

27 యిర్మీయా నోటిమాటనుబట్టి బారూకు వ్రాసిన గ్రంథ మును రాజు కాల్చిన తరువాత యెహోవా వాక్కు యిర్మీయాకు ప్రత్యక్షమై యీలాగు సెలవిచ్చెను

28 నీవు మరియొక గ్రంథము తీసికొని యూదారాజైన యెహో యాకీము కాల్చిన మొదటి గ్రంథములో వ్రాయబడిన మాటలన్నిటిని దానిలో వ్రాయుము.

29 ​మరియు యూదా రాజైన యెహోయాకీమునుగూర్చి నీవీమాట చెప్పవలెనుయెహోవా సెలవిచ్చునదేమనగాబబులోనురాజు నిశ్చ యముగా వచ్చి యీ దేశమును పాడుచేసి అందులో మనుష్యులైనను జంతువులైనను ఉండకుండ చేయునని ఇందులో నీవేల వ్రాసితివని చెప్పి నీవు ఈ గ్రంథమును కాల్చివేసితివే;

30 ​అందుచేతను యూదారాజైన యెహో యాకీమునుగూర్చి యెహోవా ఈ మాట సెలవిచ్చు చున్నాడుదావీదుయొక్క సింహాసనముమీద ఆసీనుడగుటకు అతనికి ఎవడును లేకపోవును, అతని శవము పగలు ఎండపాలు రాత్రి మంచుపాలునగును.

31 ​నేను వారి దోషమునుబట్టి అతనిని అతని సంతతిని అతని సేవకు లను శిక్షించుచున్నాను. నేను వారినిగూర్చి చెప్పిన కీడంతయు వారిమీదికిని యెరూషలేము నివాసులమీదికిని యూదా జనులమీదికిని రప్పించుచున్నాను; అయినను వారు వినినవారుకారు.

32 యిర్మీయా యింకొక గ్రంథమును తీసికొని లేఖికుడగు నేరియా కుమారుడైన బారూకుచేతికి అప్పగింపగా అతడు యిర్మీయా నోటిమాటలను బట్టి యూదారాజైన యెహోయాకీము అగ్నిలో కాల్చిన గ్రంథపు మాటలన్నిటిని వ్రాసెను; మరియు ఆ మాటలు గాక అట్టివి అనేకములు అతడు వాటితో కూర్చెను.

1 And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, that this word came unto Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,

2 Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spake unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day.

3 It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do unto them; that they may return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.

4 Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah: and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the Lord, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a book.

5 And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut up; I cannot go into the house of the Lord:

6 Therefore go thou, and read in the roll, which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of the Lord in the ears of the people in the Lord’s house upon the fasting day: and also thou shalt read them in the ears of all Judah that come out of their cities.

7 It may be they will present their supplication before the Lord, and will return every one from his evil way: for great is the anger and the fury that the Lord hath pronounced against this people.

8 And Baruch the son of Neriah did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading in the book the words of the Lord in the Lord’s house.

9 And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, in the ninth month, that they proclaimed a fast before the Lord to all the people in Jerusalem, and to all the people that came from the cities of Judah unto Jerusalem.

10 Then read Baruch in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the Lord, in the chamber of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher court, at the entry of the new gate of the Lord’s house, in the ears of all the people.

11 When Michaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard out of the book all the words of the Lord,

12 Then he went down into the king’s house, into the scribe’s chamber: and, lo, all the princes sat there, even Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan the son of Achbor, and Gemariah the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.

13 Then Michaiah declared unto them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read the book in the ears of the people.

14 Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying, Take in thine hand the roll wherein thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriah took the roll in his hand, and came unto them.

15 And they said unto him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears. So Baruch read it in their ears.

16 Now it came to pass, when they had heard all the words, they were afraid both one and other, and said unto Baruch, We will surely tell the king of all these words.

17 And they asked Baruch, saying, Tell us now, How didst thou write all these words at his mouth?

18 Then Baruch answered them, He pronounced all these words unto me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink in the book.

19 Then said the princes unto Baruch, Go, hide thee, thou and Jeremiah; and let no man know where ye be.

20 And they went in to the king into the court, but they laid up the roll in the chamber of Elishama the scribe, and told all the words in the ears of the king.

21 So the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll: and he took it out of Elishama the scribe’s chamber. And Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes which stood beside the king.

22 Now the king sat in the winterhouse in the ninth month: and there was a fire on the hearth burning before him.

23 And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three or four leaves, he cut it with the penknife, and cast it into the fire that was on the hearth, until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was on the hearth.

24 Yet they were not afraid, nor rent their garments, neither the king, nor any of his servants that heard all these words.

25 Nevertheless Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the roll: but he would not hear them.

26 But the king commanded Jerahmeel the son of Hammelech, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet: but the Lord hid them.

27 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, after that the king had burned the roll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying,

28 Take thee again another roll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first roll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah hath burned.

29 And thou shalt say to Jehoiakim king of Judah, Thus saith the Lord; Thou hast burned this roll, saying, Why hast thou written therein, saying, The king of Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause to cease from thence man and beast?

30 Therefore thus saith the Lord of Jehoiakim king of Judah; He shall have none to sit upon the throne of David: and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.

31 And I will punish him and his seed and his servants for their iniquity; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them; but they hearkened not.

32 Then took Jeremiah another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah; who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire: and there were added besides unto them many like words.

Luke 16 in Tamil and English

1 பின்னும் அவர் தம்முடைய சீஷர்களை நோக்கி: ஐசுவரியவானாகிய ஒரு மனுஷனுக்கு ஒரு உக்கிராணக்காரன் இருந்தான்; அவன் தன் எஜமானுடைய ஆஸ்திகளை அழித்துப்போடுகிறதாக எஜமானுக்கு அறிவிக்கப்பட்டது.
And he said also unto his disciples, There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods.

2 அப்பொழுது எஜமான் அவனை வரவழைத்து: உன்னைக்குறித்து நான் இப்படிக் கேள்விப்படுகிறதென்ன? உன் உக்கிராணக் கணக்கை யொப்புவி, இனி நீ உக்கிராணக்காரனாயிருக்கக்கூடாது என்றான்.
And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.

3 அப்பொழுது உக்கிராணக்காரன்: நான் என்ன செய்வேன், என் எஜமான் உக்கிராண விசாரிப்பிலிருந்து என்னைத் தள்ளிப்போடுகிறானே; கொத்துகிறதற்கு எனக்குப் பெலனில்லை, இரக்கவும் வெட்கப்படுகிறேன்.
Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed.

4 உக்கிராண விசாரிப்பைவிட்டு நான் தள்ளப்படும்போது, என்னைத் தங்கள் வீடுகளில் ஏற்றுக்கொள்வார் உண்டாகும்படி செய்யவேண்டியது இன்னதென்று எனக்குத் தெரியவந்தது, என்று தனக்குள்ளே சொல்லிக்கொண்டு;
I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.

5 தன் எஜமானிடத்தில் கடன்பட்டவர்களை ஒவ்வொருவனாக வரவழைத்து: முதலாவது வந்தவனை நோக்கி: நீ என் எஜமானிடத்தில் பட்ட கடன் எவ்வளவு என்றான்.
So he called every one of his lord’s debtors unto him, and said unto the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?

6 அவன்: நூறுகுடம் எண்ணெய் என்றான். அப்பொழுது உக்கிராணக்காரன் அவனை நோக்கி: நீ உன் சீட்டை வாங்கி, உட்கார்ந்து, ஐம்பது என்று சீக்கிரமாய் எழுது என்றான்.
And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.

7 பின்பு அவன் வேறொருவனை நோக்கி: நீ பட்ட கடன் எவ்வளவு என்றான். அவன்: நூறு கலம் கோதுமை என்றான். அப்பொழுது அவன்: நீ உன் சீட்டைவாங்கி, எண்பது என்று எழுது என்றான்.
Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, An hundred measures of wheat. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and write fourscore.

8 அநீதியுள்ள உக்கிராணக்காரன் புத்தியாய்ச் செய்தான் என்று எஜமான் கண்டு, அவனை மெச்சிக்கொண்டான். இவ்விதமாய் ஒளியின் பிள்ளைகளைப்பார்க்கிலும் இந்தப் பிரபஞ்சத்தின் பிள்ளைகள் தங்கள் சந்ததியில் அதிக புத்திமான்களாயிருக்கிறார்கள்.
And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.

9 நான் உங்களுக்குச் சொல்லுகிறேன், நீங்கள் மாளும்போது உங்களை நித்தியமான வீடுகளிலே ஏற்றுக்கொள்வாருண்டாகும்படி, அநீதியான உலகப்பொருளால் உங்களுக்குச் சிநேகிதரைச் சம்பாதியுங்கள்.
And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.

10 கொஞ்சத்திலே உண்மையுள்ளவன் அநேகத்திலும் உண்மையுள்ளவனாயிருக்கிறான், கொஞ்சத்திலே அநீதியுள்ளவன் அநேகத்திலும் அநீதியுள்ளவனாயிருக்கிறான்.
He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.

11 அநீதியான உலகப்பொருளைப்பற்றி நீங்கள் உண்மையாயிராவிட்டால், யார் உங்களை நம்பி உங்களிடத்தில் மெய்யான பொருளை ஒப்புவிப்பார்கள்?
If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?

12 வேறொருவனுடைய காரியத்தில் நீங்கள் உண்மையுள்ளவர்களாயிராவிட்டால், உங்களுக்கு யாதொன்றைச் சொந்தமாகக் கொடுப்பவர் யார்?
And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man’s, who shall give you that which is your own?

13 எந்த ஊழியக்காரனும் இரண்டு எஜமான்களுக்கு ஊழியஞ்செய்யக்கூடாது, ஒருவனைப் பகைத்து மற்றவனைச் சிநேகிப்பான், அல்லது ஒருவனைப் பற்றிக்கொண்டு மற்றவனை, அசட்டைபண்ணுவான். தேவனுக்கும் உலகப்பொருளுக்கும் ஊழியஞ்செய்ய உங்களாலே கூடாது என்றார்.
No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

14 இவைகளையெல்லாம் பொருளாசைக்காரராகிய பரிசேயரும் கேட்டு, அவரைப் பரியாசம்பண்ணினார்கள்.
And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.

15 அவர் அவர்களை நோக்கி: நீங்கள் மனுஷர்முன்பாக உங்களை நீதிமான்களாகக் காட்டுகிறீர்கள், தேவனோ உங்கள் இருதயங்களை அறிந்திருக்கிறார்; மனுஷருக்குள்ளே மேன்மையாக எண்ணப்படுகிறது தேவனுக்கு முன்பாக அருவருப்பாயிருக்கிறது.
And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

16 நியாயப்பிரமாணமும் தீர்க்தரிசன வாக்கியங்களும் யோவான்வரைக்கும் வழங்கிவந்தது; அதுமுதல் தேவனுடைய ராஜ்யம் சுவிசேஷமாய் அறிவிக்கப்பட்டுவருகிறது, யாவரும் பலவந்தமாய் அதில் பிரவேசிக்கிறார்கள்.
The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.

17 வேதத்தில் ஒரு எழுத்தின் உறுப்பு அவமாய்ப் போவதைப்பார்க்கிலும், வானமும் பூமியும் ஒழிந்துபோவது எளிதாயிருக்கும்.
And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail.

18 தன் மனைவியைத் தள்ளிவிட்டு, வேறொருத்தியை விவாகம்பண்ணுகிறவன் விபசாரஞ்செய்கிறான், புருஷனாலே தள்ளப்பட்டவளை விவாகம்பண்ணுகிறவனும் விபசாரஞ்செய்கிறான்.
Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.

19 ஐசுவரியமுள்ள ஒரு மனுஷன் இருந்தான்; அவன் இரத்தாம்பரமும் விலையேறப்பெற்ற வஸ்திரமும் தரித்து, அநுதினமும் சம்பிரமமாய் வாழ்ந்துகொண்டிருந்தான்.
There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:

20 லாசரு என்னும் பேர்கொண்ட ஒரு தரித்திரனும் இருந்தான்; அவன் பருக்கள் நிறைந்தவனாய், அந்த ஐசுவரியவானுடைய வாசலருகே கிடந்து,
And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,

21 அவனுடைய மேஜையிலிருந்து விழுந் துணிக்கைகளாலே தன் பசியை ஆற்ற ஆசையாயிருந்தான்; நாய்கள் வந்து அவன் பருக்களை நக்கிற்று.
And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man’s table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.

22 பின்பு அந்தத் தரித்திரன் மரித்து, தேவதூதரால் ஆபிரகாமுடைய மடியிலே கொண்டுபோய் விடப்பட்டான்; ஐசுவரியவானும் மரித்து அடக்கம் பண்ணப்பட்டான்.
And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham’s bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;

23 பாதாளத்திலே அவன் வேதனைப்படுகிறபோது, தன் கண்களை ஏறெடுத்து, தூரத்திலே ஆபிரகாமையும் அவன் மடியிலே லாசருவையும் கண்டான்.
And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

24 அப்பொழுது அவன்: தகப்பனாகிய ஆபிரகாமே, நீர் எனக்கு இரங்கி, லாசரு தன் விரலின் நுனியைத் தண்ணீரில் தோய்த்து, என் நாவைக் குளிரப்பண்ணும்படி அவனை அனுப்பவேண்டும்; இந்த அக்கினிஜுவாலையில் வேதனைப்படுகிறேனே என்று கூப்பிட்டான்.
And 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 am tormented in this flame.

25 அதற்கு ஆபிரகாம்: மகனே, நீ பூமியிலே உயிரோடிருக்குங் காலத்தில் உன் நன்மைகளை அனுபவித்தாய், லாசருவும் அப்படியே தீமைகளை அநுபவித்தான், அதை நினைத்துக்கொள்; இப்பொழுது அவன் தேற்றப்படுகிறான், நீயோ வேதனைப்படுகிறாய்.
But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.

26 அதுவுமல்லாமல், இவ்விடத்திலிருந்து உங்களிடத்திற்குக் கடந்துபோகவும், அவ்விடத்திலிருந்து எங்களிடத்திற்குக் கடந்துவரவும் மனதுள்ளவர்களுக்குக் கூடாதபடிக்கு, எங்களுக்கும் உங்களுக்கும் நடுவே பெரும்பிளப்பு உண்டாக்கப்பட்டிக்கிறது என்றான்.
And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.

27 அப்பொழுது அவன்: அப்படியானால், தகப்பனே, எனக்கு ஐந்து பேர் சகோதரருண்டு, அவர்களும் வேதனையுள்ள இந்த இடத்துக்கு வராதபடி, அவன் போய் அவர்களுக்குச் சாட்சியாக அறிவிக்கும் பொருட்டு,
Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father’s house:

28 நீர் அவனை என் தகப்பன் வீட்டுக்கு அனுப்பும்படி உம்மை வேண்டிக்கொள்ளுகிறேன் என்றான்.
For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.

29 ஆபிரகாம் அவனை நோக்கி: அவர்களுக்கு மோசேயும் தீர்க்கதரிசிகளும் உண்டு, அவர்களுக்கு அவர்கள் செவிகொடுக்கட்டும் என்றான்.
Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.

30 அதற்கு அவன்: அப்படியல்ல, தகப்பனாகிய ஆபிரகாமே, மரித்தோரிலிருந்து ஒருவன் அவர்களிடத்திற்குப் போனால் மனந்திரும்புவார்கள் என்றான்.
And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.

31 அதற்கு அவன்: அவர்கள் மோசேக்கும் தீர்க்கதரிசிகளுக்கும் செவிகொடாவிட்டால், மரித்தோரிலிருந்து ஒருவன் எழுந்துபோனாலும், நம்பமாட்டார்களென்று சொன்னான் என்றார்.
And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
