Tobit

Thus under King Esarhaddon I returned to my home, and my wife Anna and my son Tobiah were restored to me. Then on our festival of Pentecost, the feast of Weeks, a fine dinner was prepared for me, and I reclined to eat.

Grief-stricken in spirit, I groaned and wept aloud. Then with sobs I began to pray:

A Father's Instruction

The Angel Raphael

Then she stopped weeping.

At the House of Raguel

Expulsion of the Demon

The Money Recovered

Anxiety of the Parents

Homeward Journey

Raphael's Wages

Then Tobit composed this joyful prayer: Blessed be God who lives forever, because his kingdom lasts for all ages.
