Tob 10

1 Now Tobit his father counted every day: and when the days of the journey were expired, andthey came not, 2 Then Tobit said, Are they detained? or is Gabael dead, and there is no man to give himthe money? 3 Therefore he was very sorry. 4 Then his wife said to him, My son is dead, seeing he stays long; and she began to wailhim, and said, 5 Now I care for nothing, my son, since I have let you go, the light of mine eyes. 6 To whom Tobit said, Hold your peace, take no care, for he is safe. 7 But she said, Hold your peace, and deceive me not; my son is dead. And she went out everyday into the way which they went, and did eat no meat on the daytime, and ceased not whole nights to bewailher son Tobias, until the fourteen days of the wedding were expired, which Raguel had sworn that he shouldspend there. Then Tobias said to Raguel, 8 Let me go, for my father and my mother look no more to see me. 9 But his father in law said to him, Tarry with me, and I will send to your father, andthey shall declare to him how things go with you. 10 But Tobias said, No; but let me go to my father. 11 Then Raguel arose, and gave him Sara his wife, and half his goods, servants, and cattle,and money: 12 And he blessed them, and sent them away, saying, The God of heaven give you a prosperousjourney, my children. And he said to his daughter, Honor your father and your mother in law, which are nowyour parents, that I may hear good report of you. And he kissed her. Edna also said to Tobias, The Lordof heaven restore you, my dear brother, and grant that I may see your children of my daughter Sara beforeI die, that I may rejoice before the Lord: behold, I commit my daughter to you of special trust; whereare do not entreat her evil.
