1ΚΑΙ ἐπορεύετο μέχρις οὗ ἐγγίσαι αὐτοὺς εἰς Νινευῆ. καὶ εἶπε Ραφαὴλ πρὸς Τωβίαν· οὐ γινώσκεις, ἀδελφέ, πῶς ἀφῆκας τὸν πατέρα σου;
1And as they were returning they came to Charan, which is in the midway to Ninive, the eleventh day.
2προδράμωμεν ἔμπροσθεν τῆς γυναικός σου καὶ ἑτοιμάσωμεν τὴν οἰκίαν·
2And the angel said: Brother Tobias, thou knowest how thou didst leave thy father.
3λαβὲ δὲ παρὰ χεῖρα τὴν χολὴν τοῦ ἰχθῦος. καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν, καὶ συνῆλθεν ὁ κύων ὄπισθεν αὐτῶν.
3If it please thee therefore, let us go before, and let the family follow softly after us, together with thy wife, and with the beasts.
4καὶ Ἄννα ἐκάθητο περιβλεπομένη εἰς τὴν ὁδὸν τὸν παῖδα αὐτῆς·
4And as this their going pleased him, Raphael said to Tobias: Take with thee of the gall of the fish, for it will be necessary. So Tobias took some of that gall and departed.
5καὶ προσενόησεν αὐτὸν ἐρχόμενον καὶ εἶπε τῷ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ· ἰδοὺ ὁ υἱός μου ἔρχεται καὶ ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὁ πορευθεὶς μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
5But Anna sat beside the way daily, on the top of a hill, from whence she might see afar off.
6καὶ Ραφαὴλ εἶπεν· ἐπίσταμαι ἐγὼ ὅτι ἀνοίξει τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς ὁ πατήρ σου.
6And while she watched his coming from that place, she saw him afar off, and presently perceived it was her son coming: and returning she told her husband, saying: Behold thy son cometh.
7σὺ ἔγχρισον τὴν χολὴν εἰς τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ δηχθεὶς διατρίψει καὶ ἀποβαλεῖται τὰ λευκώματα καὶ ὄψεταί σε.
7And Raphael said to Tobias: As soon as thou shalt come into thy house, forthwith adore the Lord thy God: and giving thanks to him, go to thy father, and kiss him.
8καὶ προσδραμοῦσα Ἄννα ἐπέπεσεν ἐπὶ τὸν τράχηλον τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτῆς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· εἶδόν σε, παιδίον, ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν ἀποθανοῦμαι καὶ ἔκλαυσαν ἀμφότεροι.
8And immediately anoint his eyes with this gall of the fish, which thou carriest with thee. For be assured that his eyes shall be presently opened, and thy father shall see the light of heaven, and shall rejoice in the sight of thee.
9καὶ Τωβὶτ ἐξήρχετο πρὸς τὴν θύραν καὶ προσέκοπτεν, ὁ δὲ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ προσέδραμεν αὐτῷ
9Then the dog, which had been with them in the way, ran before, and coming as if he had brought the news, shewed his joy by his fawning and wagging his tail.
10καὶ ἐπελάβετο τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ προσέπασε τὴν χολὴν ἐπὶ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ λέγων· θάρσει, πάτερ.
10And his father that was blind, rising up, began to run stumbling with his feet: and giving a servant his hand, went to meet his son.
11ὡς δὲ συνεδήχθησαν, διέτριψε τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐλεπίσθη ἀπὸ τῶν κάνθων τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν αὐτοῦ τὰ λευκώματα.
11And receiving him kissed him, as did also his wife, and they began to weep for joy.
12καὶ ἰδὼν τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ ἐπέπεσεν ἐπὶ τὸν τράχηλον αὐτοῦ
12And when they had adored God, and given him thanks, they sat down together.
13καὶ ἔκλαυσε καὶ εἶπεν· 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 Τωβίαν τὸν υἱόν μου.
13Then Tobias taking of the gall of the fish, anointed his father’s eyes.
14καὶ εἰσῆλθεν ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ χαίρων καὶ ἀπήγγειλε τῷ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ τὰ μεγαλεῖα τὰ γενόμενα αὐτῷ ἐν τῇ Μηδίᾳ.
14And he stayed about half an hour: and a white skin began to come out of his eyes, like the skin of an egg.
15καὶ ἐξῆλθε Τωβὶτ εἰς συνάντησιν τῇ νύμφῃ αὐτοῦ χαίρων καὶ εὐλογῶν τὸν Θεὸν πρὸς τῇ πύλῃ Νινευῆ· καὶ ἐθαύμαζον οἱ θεωροῦντες αὐτὸν πορευόμενον, ὅτι ἔβλεψε.
15And Tobias took hold of it, and drew it from his eyes, and immediately he recovered his sight.
16καὶ Τωβὶτ ἐξωμολογεῖτο ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ἠλέησεν αὐτοὺς ὁ Θεός· καὶ ὡς ἤγγισε Τωβὶτ Σάρρᾳ τῇ νύμφῃ αὐτοῦ, κατευλόγησεν αὐτὴν λέγων· ἔλθοις ὑγιαίνουσα, θύγατερ· εὐλογητὸς ὁ Θεός, ὃς ἤγαγέ σε πρὸς ἡμᾶς, καὶ ὁ πατήρ σου καὶ ἡ μήτηρ σου. καὶ ἐγένετο χαρὰ πᾶσι τοῖς ἐν Νινευῆ ἀδελφοῖς αὐτοῦ.
16And they glorified God, both he and his wife and all that knew them.
17καὶ παρεγένετο Ἀχιάχαρος καὶ Νασβὰς ὁ ἐξάδελφος αὐτοῦ,
17And Tobias said: I bless thee, O Lord God of Israel, because thou hast chastised me, and thou hast saved me: and behold I see Tobias my son.
18καὶ ἤχθη ὁ γάμος Τωβία μετ᾿ εὐφροσύνης ἡμέρας ἑπτά.
18And after seven days Sara his son’s wife, and all the family arrived safe, and the cattle, and the camels, and an abundance of money of his wife’s: and that money also which he had received of Gabelus:
