| 2 | Then the young man went down to wash himself. A fish leaped up from the river and would have swallowed the young man; | ||
| 3 | and the angel said to him, "Catch the fish." So the young man seized the fish and threw it up on the land. | ||
| 4 | Then the angel said to him, "Cut open the fish and take the heart and liver and gall and put them away safely." | ||
| 5 | So the young man did as the angel told him; and they roasted and ate the fish. And they both continued on their way until they came near to Ecbatana. | ||
| 6 | Then the young man said to the angel, "Brother Azarias, of what use is the liver and heart and gall of the fish?" | ||
| 7 | He replied, "As for the heart and liver, if a demon or evil spirit gives trouble to any one, you make a smoke from these before the man or woman, and that person will never be troubled again. | ||
| 8 | And as for the gall, anoint with it a man who has white films in his eyes, and he will be cured." | ||
