It was not a prayer.

    False; a prayer is a petition or request. The rich man made two prayers. The answer to both prayers was no.
  1. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
  2. Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.

You're wasting your time playing with words amigo.

Elsie already quoted the official translation from your headquarters that makes it clear it wasn't a prayer. Just two dead people talking in the afterlife.
