αὐτὸς φωνήσας εἶπεν, Πάτερ Ἀβραάμ, ἐλέησόν με καὶ πέμψον Λάζαρον, ἵνα βάψῃ τὸ ἄκρον τοῦ δακτύλου αὐτοῦ ὕδατος, καὶ καταψύξῃ τὴν γλῶσσάν μου; ὅτι ὀδυνῶμαι ἐν τῇ φλογὶ ταύτῃ

he /having/_called said Father Abraham show_mercy ˱to˲_me and send Lazarus in_order_that ˱he˲_/may/_dip the extremity ˱of˲_the finger ˱of˲_him ˱in˲_water and /may/_cool_down the tongue ˱of˲_me because ˱I˲_/am_being/_distressed in ¬the flame this

If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “he shouted over to Abraham, addressing him respectfully as his ancestor, and asked him to have mercy on him and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool his tongue, because he was in a flame that was making him suffer greatly”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys

αὐτὸς φωνήσας εἶπεν

he /having/_called said

Together the terms crying out and said mean that the rich man spoke what follows as a loud cry. Alternate translation: “the rich man shouted out”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

Πάτερ Ἀβραάμ

Father Abraham

The rich man is using the term Father, which means “ancestor,” as a respectful title. Abraham was the ancestor of all the Jews. Alternate translation: “Abraham, my father” or “Abraham, my ancestor”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative

ἐλέησόν με

show_mercy ˱to˲_me

This is an imperative, but it should be translated as a polite request rather than as a command. It may be helpful to add an expression such as “please” to make this clear. Alternate translation: “please have pity on me” or “please help me”

καὶ πέμψον Λάζαρον

and and send Lazarus

Alternate translation: “by sending Lazarus” or “and tell Lazarus to come to me”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

βάψῃ τὸ ἄκρον τοῦ δακτύλου αὐτοῦ ὕδατος, καὶ καταψύξῃ τὴν γλῶσσάν μου

˱he˲_/may/_dip the extremity ˱of˲_the finger ˱of˲_him ˱in˲_water and /may/_cool_down the tongue ˱of˲_me

The rich man is making an exaggeratedly small request in order to emphasize how hot and thirsty he is. In your translation, you could indicate that this is not the most he would want Lazarus to do. Alternate translation: “so that he can at least dip his finger in water and cool my tongue with a drop of it” or “so he can bring me water to drink that will cool my tongue”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

καὶ καταψύξῃ τὴν γλῶσσάν μου

and and and /may/_cool_down the tongue ˱of˲_me

The rich man is describing how thirsty he is by association with the way his tongue feels hot. Alternate translation: “so that I will not be so thirsty”

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὀδυνῶμαι ἐν τῇ φλογὶ ταύτῃ

˱I˲_/am_being/_distressed in ¬the flame this

If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form. Alternate translation: “this flame is making me suffer greatly”
