Għandna raġel għani. Kien jagħmel ta’ bi ruħu li lil Lazzru ma jafux jew li mhuwiex jarah. Imma meta dan ir-raġel l-għani miet u kien fi stat ta’ tbatija lil Lazzru jsejjaħlu b’ismu meta lil Abraham jgħidlu: “Ibgħat lil Lazzru…” Dan mela kien id-dnub ta’ dan ir-raġel sinjur: mhux għax kien sinjur, mhux għax kien jiekol tajjeb u jilbes sabiħ, imma għaliex fil-għana tiegħu għalaq għajnejh għal min kien qiegħed
