| 7 1 | When they reached Ecbatana and arrived at the house of Raguel, Sarah met them and greeted them. They returned her greeting, and she brought them into the house. | At Raguel's house. Tob.7.1-12 | Καὶ ἦλθον εἰς Ἑκβάτανα καὶ παρεγένοντο εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν Ραγουηλ, Σαρρα δὲ ὑπήντησεν αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐχαιρέτισεν αὐτοὺς καὶ αὐτοὶ αὐτήν, καὶ εἰσήγαγεν αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν. |
| 7 1 | When they reached Ecbatana and arrived at the house of Raguel, Sarah met them and greeted them. They returned her greeting, and she brought them into the house. | At Raguel's house. Tob.7.1-12 | Καὶ ὅτε εἰσῆλθεν εἰς Ἑκβάτανα, λέγει αὐτῷ Αζαρια ἄδελφε, ἀπάγαγέ με εὐθεῖαν πρὸς Ραγουηλ τὸν ἀδελφὸν ἡμῶν. καὶ ἀπήγαγεν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν οἶκον Ραγουήλου, καὶ εὗρον αὐτὸν καθήμενον παρὰ τὴν θύραν τῆς αὐλῆς καὶ ἐχαιρέτισαν αὐτὸν πρῶτοι, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Χαίρετε πολλά, ἀδελφοί, καὶ καλῶς ἤλθατε ὑγιαίνοντες. καὶ ἤγαγεν αὐτοὺς εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ. |
| 2 | Then Raguel said to his wife Edna, "How much the young man resembles my cousin Tobit!" | καὶ εἶπεν Ραγουηλ Εδνα τῇ γυναικὶ αὐτοῦ Ὡς ὅμοιος ὁ νεανίσκος Τωβιτ τῷ ἀνεψιῷ μου. | |
| 3 | And Raguel asked them, "Where are you from, brethren?" They answered him, "We belong to the sons of Naphtali, who are captives in Nineveh." | καὶ ἠρώτησεν αὐτοὺς Ραγουηλ Πόθεν ἐστέ, ἀδελφοί; καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ Ἑκ τῶν υἱῶν Νεφθαλι τῶν αἰχμαλώτων ἐν Νινευη. | |
| 4 | So he said to them, "Do you know our brother Tobit?" And they said, "Yes, we do." And he asked them, "Is he in good health?" | καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Γινώσκετε Τωβιτ τὸν ἀδελφὸν ἡμῶν; οἱ δὲ εἶπαν Γινώσκομεν. | |
| 5 | They replied, "He is alive and in good health." And Tobias said, "He is my father." | καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Ὑγιαίνει; οἱ δὲ εἶπαν Καὶ ζῇ καὶ ὑγιαίνει· καὶ εἶπεν Τωβιας Πατήρ μού ἐστιν. | |
| 6 | Then Raguel sprang up and kissed him and wept. | καὶ ἀνεπήδησεν Ραγουηλ καὶ κατεφίλησεν αὐτὸν καὶ ἔκλαυσε καὶ εὐλόγησεν αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ὁ τοῦ καλοῦ καὶ ἀγαθοῦ ἀνθρώπου· καὶ ἀκούσας ὅτι Τωβιτ ἀπώλεσεν τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ, ἐλυπήθη καὶ ἔκλαυσεν. | |
| 6 | Then Raguel sprang up and kissed him and wept. | καὶ ἀνεπήδησεν Ραγουηλ καὶ κατεφίλησεν αὐτὸν καὶ ἔκλαυσεν καὶ ἐλάλησεν καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Εὐλογία σοι γένοιτο, παιδίον, ὁ τοῦ καλοῦ καὶ ἀγαθοῦ πατρός· ὦ ταλαιπώρων κακῶν, ὅτι ἐτυφλώθη ἀνὴρ δίκαιος καὶ ποιῶν ἐλεημοσύνας. καὶ ἐπιπεσὼν ἐπὶ τὸν τράχηλον Τωβια τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ ἔκλαυσεν. | |
| 7 | And he blessed him and exclaimed, "Son of that good and noble man!" When he heard that Tobit had lost his sight, he was stricken with grief and wept. | καὶ Εδνα ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ καὶ Σαρρα ἡ θυγάτηρ αὐτοῦ ἔκλαυσαν καὶ ὑπεδέξαντο αὐτοὺς προθύμως. | |
| 8 | And his wife Edna and his daughter Sarah wept. They received them very warmly; and they killed a ram from the flock and set large servings of food before them. Then Tobias said to Raphael, "Brother Azarias, speak of those things which you talked about on the journey, and let the matter be settled." | καὶ ἔθυσαν κριὸν προβάτων καὶ παρέθηκαν ὄψα πλείονα. | |
| 9 | So he communicated the proposal to Raguel. And Raguel said to Tobias, "Eat, drink, and be merry; | Εἶπεν δὲ Τωβιας τῷ Ραφαηλ Αζαρια ἄδελφε, λάλησον ὑπὲρ ὧν ἔλεγες ἐν τῇ πορείᾳ, καὶ τελεσθήτω τὸ πρᾶγμα. | |
| 10 | for it is your right to take my child. But let me explain the true situation to you. | καὶ μετέδωκεν τὸν λόγον τῷ Ραγουηλ. καὶ εἶπεν Ραγουηλ πρὸς Τωβιαν Φάγε καὶ πίε καὶ ἡδέως γίνου· σοὶ γὰρ καθήκει τὸ παιδίον μου λαβεῖν· πλὴν ὑποδείξω σοι τὴν ἀλήθειαν. | |
| 10 | for it is your right to take my child. But let me explain the true situation to you. | καὶ ἤκουσεν Ραγουηλ τὸν λόγον καὶ εἶπεν τῷ παιδί Φάγε καὶ πίε καὶ ἡδέως γενοῦ τὴν νύκτα ταύτην· οὐ γάρ ἐστιν ἄνθρωπος ᾧ καθήκει λαβεῖν Σαρραν τὴν θυγατέρα μου πλὴν σοῦ, ἄδελφε, ὡσαύτως δὲ καὶ ἐγὼ οὐκ ἔχω ἐξουσίαν δοῦναι αὐτὴν ἑτέρῳ ἀνδρὶ πλὴν σοῦ, ὅτι σὺ ἔγγιστά μου· καὶ μάλα τὴν ἀλήθειάν σοι ὑποδείξω, παιδίον. | |
| 11 | I have given my daughter to seven husbands, and when each came to her he died in the night. But for the present be merry." And Tobias said, "I will eat nothing here until you make a binding agreement with me." | ἔδωκα τὸ παιδίον μου ἑπτὰ ἀνδράσιν, καὶ ὁπότε ἐὰν εἰσεπορεύοντο πρὸς αὐτήν, ἀπεθνῄσκοσαν ὑπὸ τὴν νύκτα. ἀλλὰ τὸ νῦν ἔχων ἡδέως γίνου. | |
| 12 | So Raguel said, "Take her right now, in accordance with the law. You are her relative, and she is yours. The merciful God will guide you both for the best." | καὶ εἶπεν Τωβιας Οὐ γεύσομαι οὐδὲν ὧδε, ἕως ἂν στήσητε καὶ σταθῆτε πρός με. καὶ εἶπεν Ραγουηλ Κομίζου αὐτὴν ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν κατὰ τὴν κρίσιν· σὺ δὲ ἀδελφὸς εἶ αὐτῆς, καὶ αὐτή σού ἐστιν· ὁ δὲ ἐλεήμων θεὸς εὐοδώσει ὑμῖν τὰ κάλλιστα. | |
| 12 | So Raguel said, "Take her right now, in accordance with the law. You are her relative, and she is yours. The merciful God will guide you both for the best." | καὶ εἶπεν Τωβιας Οὐ μὴ φάγω ἐντεῦθεν οὐδὲ μὴ πίω, ἕως ἂν διαστήσῃς τὰ πρὸς ἐμέ. καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ραγουηλ ὅτι Ποιῶ, καὶ αὐτὴ δίδοταί σοι κατὰ τὴν κρίσιν τῆς βίβλου Μωυσέως, καὶ ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ κέκριταί σοι δοθῆναι· κομίζου τὴν ἀδελφήν σου. ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν σὺ ἀδελφὸς εἶ αὐτῆς καὶ αὐτὴ ἀδελφή σου· δέδοταί σοι ἀπὸ τῆς σήμερον καὶ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα· καὶ ὁ κύριος τοῦ οὐρανοῦ εὐοδώσει ὑμᾶς, παιδίον, τὴν νύκτα ταύτην καὶ ποιήσαι ἐφ' ὑμᾶς ἔλεος καὶ εἰρήνην. | |
