Luke 6:24 · Douay-Rheims
“But woe to you that are rich: for you have your consolation.”
On this verse:
“Woe to you that are full, for ye shall be hungry. That rich man clothed in purple was full, feasting sumptuously every day, but endured in hunger that dreadful “woe,” when from the finger of Lazarus, whom he had despised, he begged a drop of water.”
