Tob 11:1 After 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.
Tob 11:2 Then Raphael said to Tobias, Thou knowest, brother, how thou didst
leave thy father:
Tob 11:3 Let us haste before thy wife, and prepare the house.
Tob 11:4 And take in thine hand the gall of the fish. So they went their
way, and the dog went after them.
Tob 11:5 Now Anna sat looking about toward the way for her son.
Tob 11:6 And when she espied him coming, she said to his father, Behold, thy
son cometh, and the man that went with him.
Tob 11:7 Then said Raphael, I know, Tobias, that thy father will open his
eyes.
Tob 11:8 Therefore 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.
Tob 11:9 Then 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.
Tob 11:10 Tobit also went forth toward the door, and stumbled: but his son
ran unto him,
Tob 11:11 And took hold of his father: and he strake of the gall on his
fathers' eyes, saying, Be of good hope, my father.
Tob 11:12 And when his eyes began to smart, he rubbed them;
Tob 11:13 And the whiteness pilled away from the corners of his eyes: and
when he saw his son, he fell upon his neck.
Tob 11:14 And he wept, and said, Blessed art thou, O God, and blessed is thy
name for ever; and blessed are all thine holy angels:
Tob 11:15 For 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.
Tob 11:16 Then 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.
Tob 11:17 But 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.
Tob 11:18 And Achiacharus, and Nasbas his brother's son, came:
Tob 11:19 And Tobias' wedding was kept seven days with great joy.
