1 But as Tobias made longer stay upon occasion of the marriage, Tobias his father was solicitous, saying: Why thinkest thou doth my son tarry, or why is he detained there?
1 Tobit his father counted every day. When the days of the journey were expired, and they didn’t come,
2 Is Gabelus dead, thinkest thou, and no man will pay him the money?
2 he said, “Is he perchance detained? Or is Gabael perchance dead, and there is no one to give him the money?”
3 And he began to be exceeding sad, both he and Anna his wife with him: and they began both to weep together: because their son did not return to them on the day appointed.
3 He was very grieved.
4 But his mother wept and was quite disconsolate, and said: Woe, woe is me, my son; why did we send thee to go to a strange country, the light of our eyes, the staff of our old age, the comfort of our life, the hope of our posterity?
4 But his wife said to him, “The child has perished, seeing he waits long.” She began to bewail him, and said,
5 We having all things together in thee alone, ought not to have let thee go from us.
5 “I care about nothing, my child, since I have let you go, the light of my eyes.”
6 And Tobias said to her: Hold thy peace, and be not troubled, our son is safe: that man with whom we sent him is very trusty.
6 Tobit said to her, “Hold your peace. Don’t worry. He is in good health.”
7 But she could by no means be comforted, but daily running out looked round about, and went into all the ways by which there seemed any hope he might return, that she might if possible see him coming afar off.
7 And she said to him, “Hold your peace. Don’t deceive me. My child has perished.” And she went out every day into the way by which they went, and ate no bread in the day-time, and didn’t stop bewailing her son Tobias for whole nights, until the fourteen days of the wedding feast were expired, which Raguel had sworn that he should spend there. Then Tobias said to Raguel, “Send me away, for my father and my mother look no more to see me.”
8 But Raguel said to his son in law: Stay here, and I will send a messenger to Tobias thy father, that thou art in health.
8 But his father-in-law said to him, “Stay with me, and I will send to your father, and they will declare to him how things go with you.”
9 And Tobias said to him: I know that my father and mother now count the days, and their spirit is grievously afflicted within them.
9 Tobias said, “No. Send me away to my father.”
10 And when Raguel had pressed Tobias with many words, and he by no means would hearken to him, he delivered Sara unto him, and half of all his substance in menservants, and womenservants, in cattle, in camels, and in kine, and in much money, and sent him away safe and joyful from him.
10 Raguel arose, and gave him Sarah his wife, and half his goods, servants and cattle and money;
11 Saying: The holy angel of the Lord be with you in your journey, and bring you through safe, and that you may find all things well about your parents, and my eyes see your children before I die.
11 and he blessed them, and sent them away, saying, “The God of heaven will prosper you, my children, before I die.”
12 And the parents taking their daughter kissed her, and let her go:
12 And he said to his daughter, “Honor your father-in-law and your mother-in-law. They are now your parents. Let me hear a good report of you.” Then he kissed her. Edna said to Tobias, “May the Lord of heaven restore you, dear brother, and grant to me that I may see your children of my daughter Sarah, that I may rejoice before the Lord. Behold, I commit my daughter to you in special trust. Don’t cause her grief.
13 Admonishing her to honour her father and mother in law, to love her husband, to take care of the family, to govern the house, and to behave herself irreprehensibly.
