1 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage Old Testament in Greek (Septuagint)

10Now 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.1.10-15καὶ ὅτε ᾐχμαλωτίσθην εἰς Νινευη, πάντες οἱ ἀδελφοί μου καὶ οἱ ἐκ τοῦ γένους μου ἤσθιον ἐκ τῶν ἄρτων τῶν ἐθνῶν·
11but I kept myself from eating it,  ἐγὼ δὲ συνετήρησα τὴν ψυχήν μου μὴ φαγεῖν,
12because I remembered God with all my heart.  καθότι ἐμεμνήμην τοῦ θεοῦ ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ ψυχῇ μου.
13Then the Most High gave me favour and good appearance in the sight of Shalmaneser, and I was his buyer of provisions.  καὶ ἔδωκεν ὁ ὕψιστος χάριν καὶ μορφὴν ἐνώπιον Ενεμεσσαρου, καὶ ἤμην αὐτοῦ ἀγοραστής·
14So 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.  καὶ ἐπορευόμην εἰς τὴν Μηδίαν καὶ παρεθέμην Γαβαήλῳ τῷ ἀδελφῷ Γαβρια ἐν Ραγοις τῆς Μηδίας ἀργυρίου τάλαντα δέκα.
15But 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.  Καὶ ὅτε ἀπέθανεν Ενεμεσσαρος, ἐβασίλευσεν Σενναχηριμ ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ αὐτοῦ, καὶ αἱ ὁδοὶ αὐτοῦ ἠκαταστάτησαν, καὶ οὐκέτι ἠδυνάσθην πορευθῆναι εἰς τὴν Μηδίαν.
