16 The law and the prophets [were] until John: from that time the glad tidings of the kingdom of God are announced, and every one forces his way into it. DBY — Luke 16:16
17 But it is easier that the heaven and the earth should pass away than that one tittle of the law should fail. DBY — Luke 16:17

20 And [there was] a poor man, by name Lazarus, [who] was laid at his gateway full of sores, DBY — Luke 16:20
21 and desiring to be filled with the crumbs which fell from the table of the rich man; but the dogs also coming licked his sores. DBY — Luke 16:21

28 for I have five brothers, so that he may earnestly testify to them, that they also may not come to this place of torment. DBY — Luke 16:28
29 But Abraham says to him, They have Moses and the prophets: let them hear them. DBY — Luke 16:29
30 But he said, Nay, father Abraham, but if one from the dead should go to them, they will repent. DBY — Luke 16:30
31 And he said to him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, not even if one rise from among [the] dead will they be persuaded. DBY — Luke 16:31
