Tobit:1 >> |
LXX |
|
| 1 |
The book of the acts of Tobit the son of Tobiel, son of Ananiel, son of Aduel, son of Gabael, of the descendants of Asiel and the tribe of Naphtali, | TOBIT. Tob.1.1-2 | |
| 2 |
who in the days of Shalmaneser, king of the Assyrians, was taken into captivity from Thisbe, which is to the south of Kedesh Naphtali in Galilee above Asher. | | |
| 3 |
I, Tobit, walked in the ways of truth and righteousness all the days of my life, and I performed many acts of charity to my brethren and countrymen who went with me into the land of the Assyrians, to Nineveh. | Tobit's early life. Tob.1.3-5 | |
| 4 |
Now when I was in my own country, in the land of Israel, while I was still a young man, the whole tribe of Naphtali my forefather deserted the house of Jerusalem. This was the place which had been chosen from among all the tribes of Israel, where all the tribes should sacrifice and where the temple of the dwelling of the Most High was consecrated and established for all generations for ever. | | καὶ ὅτε ἤμην ἐν τῇ χώρᾳ μου ἐν γῇ Ισραηλ καὶ ὅτε ἤμην νέος, πᾶσα ἡ φυλὴ Νεφθαλιμ τοῦ πατρός μου ἀπέστησαν ἀπὸ τοῦ οἴκου Δαυιδ τοῦ πατρός μου καὶ ἀπὸ Ιερουσαλημ πόλεως τῆς ἐκλεγείσης ἐκ πασῶν φυλῶν Ισραηλ εἰς τὸ θυσιάζειν πάσαις φυλαῖς Ισραηλ· καὶ ἡγιάσθη ὁ ναὸς τῆς κατασκηνώσεως τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ ᾠκοδομήθη ἐν αὐτῇ εἰς πάσας τὰς γενεὰς τοῦ αἰῶνος. |
| 5 |
All the tribes that joined in apostasy used to sacrifice to the calf Baal, and so did the house of Naphtali my forefather. | | |
| 6 |
But I alone went often to Jerusalem for the feasts, as it is ordained for all Israel by an everlasting decree. Taking the first fruits and the tithes of my produce and the first shearings, I would give these to the priests, the sons of Aaron, at the altar. | Tobit's faithfulness. Tob.1.6-8 | |
| 7 |
Of all my produce I would give a tenth to the sons of Levi who ministered at Jerusalem; a second tenth I would sell, and I would go and spend the proceeds each year at Jerusalem; | | καὶ ἐδίδουν αὐτὰ τοῖς ἱερεῦσιν τοῖς υἱοῖς Ααρων πρὸς τὸ θυσιαστήριον καὶ τὴν δεκάτην τοῦ σίτου καὶ τοῦ οἴνου καὶ ἐλαίου καὶ ῥοῶν καὶ τῶν σύκων καὶ τῶν λοιπῶν ἀκροδρύων τοῖς υἱοῖς Λευι τοῖς θεραπεύουσιν ἐν Ιερουσαλημ. καὶ τὴν δεκάτην τὴν δευτέραν ἀπεδεκάτιζον ἀργυρίῳ τῶν ἓξ ἐτῶν καὶ ἐπορευόμην καὶ ἐδαπάνων αὐτὰ ἐν Ιερουσαλημ καθ' ἕκαστον ἐνιαυτόν. |
| 8 |
the third tenth I would give to those to whom it was my duty, as Deborah my father's mother had commanded me, for I was left an orphan by my father. | | καὶ ἐδίδουν αὐτὰ τοῖς ὀρφανοῖς καὶ ταῖς χήραις καὶ προσηλύτοις τοῖς προσκειμένοις τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ εἰσέφερον καὶ ἐδίδουν αὐτοῖς ἐν τῷ τρίτῳ ἔτει καὶ ἠσθίομεν αὐτὰ κατὰ τὸ πρόσταγμα τὸ προστεταγμένον περὶ αὐτῶν ἐν τῷ νόμῳ Μωσῆ καὶ κατὰ τὰς ἐντολάς, ἃς ἐνετείλατο Δεββωρα ἡ μήτηρ Ανανιηλ τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν, ὅτι ὀρφανὸν κατέλιπέν με ὁ πατὴρ καὶ ἀπέθανεν. |
| 9 |
When I became a man I married Anna, a member of our family, and by her I became the father of Tobias. | | |
| 10 |
Now when I was carried away captive to Nineveh, all my brethren and my relatives ate the food of the Gentiles; | Tobit's faithfulness in exile. Tob.1.10-15 | |
| 11 |
but I kept myself from eating it, | | |
| 12 |
because I remembered God with all my heart. | | |
| 13 |
Then the Most High gave me favour and good appearance in the sight of Shalmaneser, and I was his buyer of provisions. | | |
| 14 |
So I used to go into Media, and once at Rages in Media I left ten talents of silver in trust with Gabael, the brother of Gabrias. | | |
| 15 |
But when Shalmaneser died, Sennacherib his son reigned in his place; and under him the highways were unsafe, so that I could no longer go into Media. | | |
| 16 |
In the days of Shalmaneser I performed many acts of charity to my brethren. | Tobit buries the dead. Tob.1.16-20 | |
| 17 |
I would give my bread to the hungry and my clothing to the naked; and if I saw any one of my people dead and thrown out behind the wall of Nineveh, I would bury him. | | |
| 18 |
And if Sennacherib the king put to death any who came fleeing from Judea, I buried them secretly. For in his anger he put many to death. When the bodies were sought by the king, they were not found. | | καὶ εἴ τινα ἀπέκτεινεν Σενναχηριμ, ὅτε ἀπῆλθεν φεύγων ἐκ τῆς Ιουδαίας ἐν ἡμέραις τῆς κρίσεως, ἧς ἐποίησεν ἐξ αὐτοῦ ὁ βασιλεὺς τοῦ οὐρανοῦ περὶ τῶν βλασφημιῶν, ὧν ἐβλασφήμησεν, ἔθαψα· πολλοὺς γὰρ ἀπέκτεινεν ἐν τῷ θυμῷ αὐτοῦ ἐκ τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ, καὶ ἔκλεπτον τὰ σώματα αὐτῶν καὶ ἔθαπτον· καὶ ἐζήτησεν αὐτὰ Σενναχηριμ καὶ οὐχ εὗρεν αὐτά. |
| 19 |
Then one of the men of Nineveh went and informed the king about me, that I was burying them; so I hid myself. When I learned that I was being searched for, to be put to death, I left home in fear. | | |
| 20 |
Then all my property was confiscated and nothing was left to me except my wife Anna and my son Tobias. | | |
| 21 |
But not fifty days passed before two of Sennacherib's sons killed him, and they fled to the mountains of Ararat. Then Esarhaddon, his son, reigned in his place; and he appointed Ahikar, the son of my brother Anael, over all the accounts of his kingdom and over the entire administration. | Tobit's nephew rescues him. Tob.1.21-22 | καὶ οὐ διῆλθον ἡμέραι τεσσαράκοντα ἕως οὗ ἀπέκτειναν αὐτὸν οἱ δύο υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἔφυγον εἰς τὰ ὄρη Αραρατ, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Σαχερδονος υἱὸς αὐτοῦ μετ' αὐτόν. καὶ ἔταξεν Αχιχαρον τὸν Αναηλ τὸν τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ μου υἱὸν ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν ἐκλογιστίαν τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ, καὶ αὐτὸς εἶχεν τὴν ἐξουσίαν ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν διοίκησιν. |
| 22 |
Ahikar interceded for me, and I returned to Nineveh. Now Ahikar was cupbearer, keeper of the signet, and in charge of administration of the accounts, for Esarhaddon had appointed him second to himself. He was my nephew. | | τότε ἠξίωσεν Αχιχαρος περὶ ἐμοῦ, καὶ κατῆλθον εἰς τὴν Νινευη. Αχιχαρος γὰρ ἦν ὁ ἀρχιοινοχόος καὶ ἐπὶ τοῦ δακτυλίου καὶ διοικητὴς καὶ ἐκλογιστῆς ἐπὶ Σενναχηριμ βασιλέως Ἀσσυρίων, καὶ κατέστησεν αὐτὸν Σαχερδονος ἐκ δευτέρας· ἦν δὲ ἐξάδελφός μου καὶ ἐκ τῆς συγγενείας μου. |
