My LORD’s BibleTobit 11
1After these things Tobias went his way, praising God that he had given him a prosperous journey, and blessed Raguel and Edna his wife, and went on his way till they drew near unto Nineve.
καὶ ἐπορεύετο μέχρις οὗ ἐγγίσαι αὐτοὺς εἰς νινευη καὶ εἶπεν ραφαηλ πρὸς τωβιαν
2Then Raphael said to Tobias, Thou knowest, brother, how thou didst leave thy father:
οὐ γινώσκεις ἄδελφε πῶς ἀφῆκας τὸν πατέρα σου
3Let us haste before thy wife, and prepare the house.
προδράμωμεν ἔμπροσθεν τῆς γυναικός σου καὶ ἑτοιμάσωμεν τὴν οἰκίαν
4And take in thine hand the gall of the fish. So they went their way, and the dog went after them.
λαβὲ δὲ παρὰ χεῖρα τὴν χολὴν τοῦ ἰχθύος καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν καὶ συνῆλθεν ὁ κύων ὄπισθεν αὐτῶν
5Now Anna sat looking about toward the way for her son.
καὶ αννα ἐκάθητο περιβλεπομένη εἰς τὴν ὁδὸν τὸν παῖδα αὐτῆς
6And when she espied him coming, she said to his father, Behold, thy son cometh, and the man that went with him.
καὶ προσενόησεν αὐτὸν ἐρχόμενον καὶ εἶπεν τῷ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ ἰδοὺ ὁ υἱός σου ἔρχεται καὶ ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὁ πορευθεὶς μετ' αὐτοῦ
7Then said Raphael, I know, Tobias, that thy father will open his eyes.
καὶ ραφαηλ εἶπεν ἐπίσταμαι ἐγὼ ὅτι ἀνοίξει τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς ὁ πατήρ σου
8Therefore anoint thou his eyes with the gall, and being pricked therewith, he shall rub, and the whiteness shall fall away, and he shall see thee.
σὺ οὖν ἔγχρισον τὴν χολὴν εἰς τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ δηχθεὶς διατρίψει καὶ ἀποβαλεῖ τὰ λευκώματα καὶ ὄψεταί σε
9Then Anna ran forth, and fell upon the neck of her son, and said unto him, Seeing I have seen thee, my son, from henceforth I am content to die. And they wept both.
καὶ προσδραμοῦσα αννα ἐπέπεσεν ἐπὶ τὸν τράχηλον τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτῆς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ εἶδόν σε παιδίον ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν ἀποθανοῦμαι καὶ ἔκλαυσαν ἀμφότεροι
10Tobit also went forth toward the door, and stumbled: but his son ran unto him,
καὶ τωβιτ ἐξήρχετο πρὸς τὴν θύραν καὶ προσέκοπτεν ὁ δὲ υἱὸς προσέδραμεν αὐτῷ
11And took hold of his father: and he strake of the gall on his fathers’ eyes, saying, Be of good hope, my father.
καὶ ἐπελάβετο τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ προσέπασεν τὴν χολὴν ἐπὶ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ λέγων θάρσει πάτερ
12And when his eyes began to smart, he rubbed them;
ὡς δὲ συνεδήχθησαν διέτριψε τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐλεπίσθη ἀπὸ τῶν κανθῶν τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν αὐτοῦ τὰ λευκώματα
13And the whiteness pilled away from the corners of his eyes: and when he saw his son, he fell upon his neck.
καὶ ἰδὼν τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ ἐπέπεσεν ἐπὶ τὸν τράχηλον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔκλαυσεν καὶ εἶπεν
14And he wept, and said, Blessed art thou, O God, and blessed is thy name for ever; and blessed are all thine holy angels:
εὐλογητὸς εἶ ὁ θεός καὶ εὐλογητὸν τὸ ὄνομά σου εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας καὶ εὐλογημένοι πάντες οἱ ἅγιοί σου ἄγγελοι ὅτι ἐμαστίγωσας καὶ ἠλέησάς με ἰδοὺ βλέπω τωβιαν τὸν υἱόν μου
15For thou hast scourged, and hast taken pity on me: for, behold, I see my son Tobias. And his son went in rejoicing, and told his father the great things that had happened to him in Media.
καὶ εἰσῆλθεν ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ χαίρων καὶ ἀπήγγειλεν τῷ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ τὰ μεγαλεῖα τὰ γενόμενα αὐτῷ ἐν τῇ μηδίᾳ
16Then Tobit went out to meet his daughter in law at the gate of Nineve, rejoicing and praising God: and they which saw him go marvelled, because he had received his sight.
καὶ ἐξῆλθεν τωβιτ εἰς συνάντησιν τῇ νύμφῃ αὐτοῦ χαίρων καὶ εὐλογῶν τὸν θεὸν πρὸς τῇ πύλῃ νινευη καὶ ἐθαύμαζον οἱ θεωροῦντες αὐτὸν πορευόμενον ὅτι ἔβλεψεν καὶ τωβιτ ἐξωμολογεῖτο ἐνώπιον αὐτῶν ὅτι ἠλέησεν αὐτὸν ὁ θεός
17But Tobias gave thanks before them, because God had mercy on him. And when he came near to Sara his daughter in law, he blessed her, saying, Thou art welcome, daughter: God be blessed, which hath brought thee unto us, and blessed be thy father and thy mother. And there was joy among all his brethren which were at Nineve.
καὶ ὡς ἤγγισεν τωβιτ σαρρα τῇ νύμφῃ αὐτοῦ κατευλόγησεν αὐτὴν λέγων ἔλθοις ὑγιαίνουσα θύγατερ εὐλογητὸς ὁ θεός ὃς ἤγαγέν σε πρὸς ἡμᾶς καὶ ὁ πατήρ σου καὶ ἡ μήτηρ σου
18And Achiacharus, and Nasbas his brother’s son, came:
καὶ ἐγένετο χαρὰ πᾶσι τοῖς ἐν νινευη ἀδελφοῖς αὐτοῦ
19And Tobias’ wedding was kept seven days with great joy.
καὶ παρεγένετο αχιαχαρος καὶ νασβας ὁ ἐξάδελφος αὐτοῦ καὶ ἤχθη ὁ γάμος τωβια μετ' εὐφροσύνης ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας
