Anyone who is among the living has hope— even a live dog is better off than a dead lion!

Anyone who is still living has hope. Even a live dog is better off than a dead lion!

And besides, there is a great chasm separating us. No one can cross over to you from here, and no one can cross over to us from there.’“ Then the rich man said,‘ Please, Father Abraham, at least send him to my father’s home.For I have five brothers, and I want him to warn them so they don’t end up in this place of torment.’“ But Abraham said,‘ Moses and the prophets have warned them. Your brothers can read what they wrote.’

Yet I still dare to hope when I remember this:The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease.

“ Even a tree has more hope! If it is cut down, it will sprout again and grow new branches.Though its roots have grown old in the earth and its stump decays,at the scent of water it will bud and sprout again like a new seedling.“ But when people die, their strength is gone. They breathe their last, and then where are they?As water evaporates from a lake and a river disappears in drought,people are laid to rest and do not rise again. Until the heavens are no more, they will not wake up nor be roused from their sleep.

For the dead cannot praise you; they cannot raise their voices in praise. Those who go down to the grave can no longer hope in your faithfulness.

For what hope do the godless have when God cuts them off and takes away their life?
