1 Tunc vocavit ad se Tobias filium suum, dixitque ei: Quid possumus dare viro isti sancto, qui venit tecum?
·
1 And Tobit called his son Tobias, and said to him, “See, my child, that the man which went with you have his wages, and you must give him more.”
2 Respondens Tobias, dixit patri suo: Pater, quam mercedem dabimus ei? aut quid dignum poterit esse beneficiis ejus?
·
2 And he said to him, “Father, it is no harm to me to give him the half of those things which I have brought;
3 Me duxit et reduxit sanum, pecuniam a Gabelo ipse recepit, uxorem ipse me habere fecit, et dæmonium ab ea ipse compescuit: gaudium parentibus ejus fecit, meipsum a devoratione piscis eripuit, te quoque videre fecit lumen cæli, et bonis omnibus per eum repleti sumus. Quid illi ad hæc poterimus dignum dare?
·
3 for he has led me for you in safety, and he cured my wife, and brought my money, and likewise cured you.”
4 Sed peto te, pater mi, ut roges eum, si forte dignabitur medietatem de omnibus quæ allata sunt, sibi assumere.
·
4 The old man said, “It is due to him.”
5 Et vocantes eum, pater scilicet et filius, tulerunt eum in partem: et rogare cœperunt ut dignaretur dimidiam partem omnium quæ attulerant acceptam habere.
·
5 And he called the angel, and said to him, “Take half of all that you have brought.”
6 Tunc dixit eis occulte: Benedicite Deum cæli, et coram omnibus viventibus confitemini ei, quia fecit vobiscum misericordiam suam.
·
6 Then he called them both privately, and said to them, “Bless God, and give him thanks, and magnify him, and give him thanks in the sight of all that live, for the things which he has done with you. It is good to bless God and exalt his name, showing forth with honor the works of God. Don’t be slack to give him thanks.
7 Etenim sacramentum regis abscondere bonum est: opera autem Dei revelare et confiteri honorificum est.
·
7 It is good to conceal the secret of a king, but to reveal gloriously the works of God. Do good, and evil won’t find you.
8 Bona est oratio cum jejunio, et eleemosyna magis quam thesauros auri recondere:
·
8 Good is prayer with fasting, alms, and righteousness. A little with righteousness is better than much with unrighteousness. It is better to give alms than to lay up gold.
9 quoniam eleemosyna a morte liberat, et ipsa est quæ purgat peccata, et facit invenire misericordiam et viam æternam.
·
9 Alms delivers from death, and it purges away all sin. Those who give alms and do righteousness will be filled with life;
10 Qui autem faciunt peccatum et iniquitatem, hostes sunt animæ suæ.
·
10 but those who sin are enemies to their own life.
11 Manifesto ergo vobis veritatem, et non abscondam a vobis occultum sermonem.
·
11 Surely I will conceal nothing from you. I have said, ‘It is good to conceal the secret of a king, but to reveal gloriously the works of God.’
12 Quando orabas cum lacrimis, et sepeliebas mortuos, et derelinquebas prandium tuum, et mortuos abscondebas per diem in domo tua, et nocte sepeliebas eos, ego obtuli orationem tuam Domino.
·
12 And now, when you prayed, and Sarah your daughter-in-law, I brought the memorial of your prayer before the Holy One. When you buried the dead, I was with you likewise.
13 Et quia acceptus eras Deo, necesse fuit ut tentatio probaret te.
·
13 And when you didn’t delay to rise up, and leave your dinner, that you might go and cover the dead, your good deed was not hidden from me. I was with you.
14 Et nunc misit me Dominus ut curarem te, et Saram uxorem filii tui a dæmonio liberarem.
·
14 And now God sent me to heal you and Sarah your daughter-in-law.
15 Ego enim sum Raphaël angelus, unus ex septem qui adstamus ante Dominum.
·
15 I am Raphael, one of the seven holy angels which present the prayers of the saints and go in before the glory of the Holy One.”
16 Cumque hæc audissent, turbati sunt, et trementes ceciderunt super terram in faciem suam.
·
16 And they were both troubled, and fell upon their faces; for they were afraid.
17 Dixitque eis angelus: Pax vobis: nolite timere.
·
17 And he said to them, “Don’t be afraid. You will all have peace; but bless God forever.
18 Etenim cum essem vobiscum, per voluntatem Dei eram: ipsum benedicite, et cantate illi.
·
18 For I came not of any favor of my own, but by the will of your God. Therefore bless him forever.
19 Videbar quidem vobiscum manducare et bibere: sed ego cibo invisibili, et potu qui ab hominibus videri non potest, utor.
·
19 All these days I appeared to you. I didn’t eat or drink, but you all saw a vision.
20 Tempus est ergo ut revertar ad eum qui me misit: vos autem benedicite Deum, et narrate omnia mirabilia ejus.
·
20 Now give God thanks, because I ascend to him who sent me. Write in a book all the things which have been done.”
21 Et cum hæc dixisset, ab aspectu eorum ablatus est, et ultra eum videre non potuerunt.
·
21 Then they rose up, and saw him no more.
22 Tunc prostrati per horas tres in faciem, benedixerunt Deum: et exsurgentes narraverunt omnia mirabilia ejus.
·
22 They confessed the great and wonderful works of God, and how the angel of the Lord had appeared to them.

Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo.

When you can do good, defer it not, because "alms delivers from death." Be all of you subject one to another "having your conduct blameless among the Gentiles," that ye may both receive praise for your good works, and the Lord may not be blasphemed through you.
