Tobit 11:7-12 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

7. And Raphael said to Tobias: "As soon as you enter into your house, immediately adore the Lord your God. And, giving thanks to him, approach your father, and kiss him.

8. And immediately anoint his eyes from this gall of the fish, which you carry with you. For you should know that his eyes will soon be opened, and your father will see the light of heaven, and he will rejoice at the sight of you."

9. Then the dog, which had been with them in the way, ran ahead, and, arriving like a messenger, he showed his joy by fawning and wagging his tail.

10. And rising up, his blind father began to run, stumbling with his feet. And giving his hand to a servant, he ran on to meet his son.

11. And receiving him, he kissed him, as did his wife, and they both began to weep for joy.

12. And when they had adored God and had given thanks, they sat down together.
