Tobit 10:8-13 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

8. In truth, Raguel said to his son-in-law, "Remain here, and I will send a message of your health to your father Tobit."

9. And Tobias said to him, "I know that my father and my mother have now counted the days, and their spirit must be tortured within them."

10. And when Raguel had repeatedly petitioned Tobias, and he was by no means willing to listen to him, he delivered Sarah to him, and half of all his substance: with men and women servants, with sheep, camels, and cows, and with much money. And he dismissed him away, in safety and gladness, from him,

11. saying: "May the holy Angel of the Lord be with your journey, and may he lead you through unharmed, and may you discover that all is right concerning your parents, and may my eyes see your sons before I die."

12. And the parents, taking hold of their daughter, kissed her and let her go:

13. admonishing her to honor her father-in-law, to love her husband, to guide the family, to govern the household, and to behave irreproachably herself.
