Luke 16:22-24
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
22 And it came about that the poor man died and he was carried-away by the angels to the bosom of Abraham. And the rich man also died and was buried. 23 And having lifted-up his eyes in Hades while being in torments, he sees Abraham from a-distance, and Lazarus in his bosom[a]. 24 And he, having called, said, ‘Father Abraham, have-mercy-on me and send Lazarus in order that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool-off my tongue, because I am suffering-pain in this flame’.

- Luke 16:23 Same word as earlier, but plural. That is, at his side; or, in his folds (of the garment, as in 6:38), in his lap. This is a reference either to a loving expression of comfort (v 25) and welcome, or to a place of honor.

New International Version
22 “The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried. 23 In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. 24 So he called to him, ‘Father Abraham,(A) have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.’(B)
