HOLY BIBLE: Tobit 7 (original) (raw)

1 καὶ ἦλθον εἰς Ἐκβάτανα καὶ παρεγένοντο εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν Ραγουηλ Σαρρα δὲ ὑπήντησεν αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐχαιρέτισεν αὐτοὺς καὶ αὐτοὶ αὐτήν καὶ εἰσήγαγεν αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν 2 καὶ εἶπεν Ραγουηλ Εδνα τῇ γυναικὶ αὐτοῦ ὡς ὅμοιος ὁ νεανίσκος Τωβιτ τῷ ἀνεψιῷ μου 3 καὶ ἠρώτησεν αὐτοὺς Ραγουηλ πόθεν ἐστέ ἀδελφοί καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ ἐκ τῶν υἱῶν Νεφθαλι τῶν αἰχμαλώτων ἐν Νινευη 4 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς γινώσκετε Τωβιτ τὸν ἀδελφὸν ἡμῶν οἱ δὲ εἶπαν γινώσκομεν 5 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ὑγιαίνει οἱ δὲ εἶπαν καὶ ζῇ καὶ ὑγιαίνει καὶ εἶπεν Τωβιας πατήρ μού ἐστιν 6 καὶ ἀνεπήδησεν Ραγουηλ καὶ κατεφίλησεν αὐτὸν καὶ ἔκλαυσε καὶ εὐλόγησεν αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ τοῦ καλοῦ καὶ ἀγαθοῦ ἀνθρώπου καὶ ἀκούσας ὅτι Τωβιτ ἀπώλεσεν τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ ἐλυπήθη καὶ ἔκλαυσεν 7 καὶ Εδνα ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ καὶ Σαρρα ἡ θυγάτηρ αὐτοῦ ἔκλαυσαν καὶ ὑπεδέξαντο αὐτοὺς προθύμως 8 καὶ ἔθυσαν κριὸν προβάτων καὶ παρέθηκαν ὄψα πλείονα

1 To Raguel, then, they went, and right gladly he welcomed them; 2 he no sooner caught sight of Tobias than he said to his wife Anna,[1] Here is a young man has the very look of my cousin Tobias! 3 Then he asked them, Whence come you, fellow-countrymen? 4 And, upon hearing that they were of Nephthali’s tribe, exiles dwelling at Nineve, 5 Do you know my cousin, Tobias? Yes, they said, we know him well. 6 With that, Raguel fell to singing his cousin’s praises, but the angel cut him short: Thou dost well to ask about Tobias; this is his son. 7 Thereupon Raguel threw his arms about him, and wept, and kissed him, and wept again; A blessing on thee, my son, cried he; ‘tis a good man, a good excellent man, thou hast for thy father! 8 And there stood his wife Anna, and their daughter Sara, in tears like himself.

1 Ingressi sunt autem ad Raguelem, et suscepit eos Raguel cum gaudio. 2 Intuensque Tobiam Raguel, dixit Annæ uxori suæ: Quam similis est juvenis iste consobrino meo! 3 Et cum hæc dixisset, ait: Unde estis juvenes fratres nostri? At illi dixerunt: Ex tribu Nephthali sumus, ex captivitate Ninive. 4 Dixitque illis Raguel: Nostis Tobiam fratrem meum? Qui dixerunt: Novimus. 5 Cumque multa bona loqueretur de eo, dixit angelus ad Raguelem: Tobias, de quo interrogas, pater istius est. 6 Et misit se Raguel, et cum lacrimis osculatus est eum, et plorans supra collum ejus 7 dixit: Benedictio sit tibi, fili mi, quia boni et optimi viri filius es. 8 Et Anna uxor ejus, et Sara ipsorum filia, lacrimatæ sunt.
