10. Sarah likewise said, "Be merciful to us, O Lord, be merciful to us. And let us both grow old together in health."
11. And it happened, about the time of the rooster's crowing, that Raguel ordered his servants to be summoned, and they went out with him together to dig a grave.
12. For he said, "Lest perhaps, in the same way, it may have happened to him, as it did also to the other seven men who approached her."
13. And when they had prepared the pit, Raguel returned to his wife, and he said to her,
14. "Send one of your maids, and let her see if he is dead, so that I may bury him before the dawn of day."
15. And so, she sent one of her maidservants, who entered the bedroom and discovered them safe and unharmed, sleeping both together.
16. And returning, she reported the good news. And they blessed the Lord: Raguel, especially, and his wife Anna.
17. And they said: "We bless you, Lord God of Israel, because it has not happened in the way that we thought it might.
18. For you have acted in your mercy toward us, and you have excluded from us the enemy who pursued us.
19. Moreover, you have had compassion on two only children. Make them, O Lord, able to bless you more fully and to offer you a sacrifice of your praise and of their health, so that all peoples everywhere may know that you alone are God in all the earth."
20. And immediately Raguel instructed his servants to refill the pit, which they had made, before daylight.
21. And then he told his wife to make ready a feast, and to prepare all the provisions that are necessary for those who undertake a journey.
