[1] After these things Tobias also went his way, blessing God because he had prospered his journey; and he blessed Raguel and Edna his wife. And he went on his way till they drew near to Nineveh.
[2] And Raphael said to Tobias, Know you not, brother, how you did leave your father?
[3] Let us run forward before your wife, and prepare the house.
[4] But take in your hand the gall of the fish. And they went their way, and the dog went after them.
[5] And Anna sat looking about toward the way for her son.
[6] And she espied him coming, and said to his father, Behold, your son comes, and the man that went with him.
[7] And Raphael said, I know, Tobias, that your father will open his eyes.
[8] Do you therefore anoint his eyes with the gall, and being pricked therewith, he shall rub, and shall make the white films to fall away, and he shall see you.
[9] And Anna ran to him, and fell upon the neck of her son, and said to him, I have seen you, my child; from henceforth I will die. And they wept both.
[10] And Tobit went forth toward the door, and stumbled: but his son ran to him,
[11] and took hold of his father: and he struck the gall on his father's eyes, saying, Be of good cheer, my father.
[12] But when his eyes began to hurt, he rubbed them;
[13] and the white films scaled away from the corners of his eyes; and he saw his son, and fell upon his neck.
[14] And he wept, and said, Blessed are you, O God, and blessed is your name for ever, and blessed are all your holy angels;
[15] for you did scourge, and did have mercy on me: 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.
[16] And Tobit went out to meet his daughter in law at the gate of Nineveh, rejoicing, and blessing God: and they which saw him go marvelled, because he had received his sight.
[17] And Tobit gave thanks before them, because God had showed mercy on him. And when Tobit came near to Sarah his daughter in law, he blessed her, saying, Welcome, daughter: blessed is God which has brought you to us, andblessed are your father and your mother. And there was joy to all his brethren which were at Nineveh.
[18] And Achiacharus, and Nasbas his brother's son, came:
[19] and Tobias' wedding feast was kept seven days with great gladness.
