4:15. If any man hath done any work for thee, immediately pay him his
hire, and let not the wages of thy hired servant stay with thee at all.
4:16. See thou never do to another what thou wouldst hate to have done
to thee by another.
4:17. Eat thy bread with the hungry and the needy, and with thy garments
cover the naked,
4:18. Lay out thy bread, and thy wine upon the burial of a just man, and
do not eat and drink thereof with the wicked.
4:19. Seek counsel always of a wise man.
4:20. Bless God at all times: and desire of him to direct thy ways, and
that all thy counsels may abide in him.
4:21. I tell thee also, my son, that I lent ten talents of silver, while
thou wast yet a child, to Gabelus, in Rages a city of the Medes, and I
have a note of his hand with me:
4:22. Now therefore inquire how thou mayst go to him, and receive of him
the foresaid sum of money, and restore to him the note of his hand.
4:23. Fear not, my son: we lead indeed a poor life, but we shall have
many good things if we fear God, and depart from all sin, and do that
which is good.
Tobias Chapter 5
Young Tobias seeking a guide for his journey, the angel Raphael, in
shape of a man, undertaketh this office.
5:1. Then Tobias answered his father, and said: I will do all things,
father, which thou hast commanded me.
5:2. But how I shall get this money, I cannot tell; he knoweth not me,
and I know not him: what token shall I give him? nor did I ever know the
way which leadeth thither.
5:3. Then his father answered him, and said: I have a note of his hand
with me, which when thou shalt shew him, he will presently pay it.
5:4. But go now, and seek thee out some faithful man, to go with thee
for his hire: that thou mayst receive it, while I yet live.
5:5. Then Tobias going forth, found a beautiful young man, standing
girded, and as it were ready to walk.
5:6. And not knowing that he was an angel of God, he saluted him, and
said: From whence art thou, good young man?
5:7. But he answered: Of the children of Israel. And Tobias said to him:
Knowest thou the way that leadeth to the country of the Medes?
5:8. And he answered: I know it: and I have often walked through all the
ways thereof, and I have abode with Gabelus our brother, who dwelleth at
Rages a city of the Medes, which is situate in the mount of Ecbatana.
5:9. And Tobias said to him: Stay for me, I beseech thee, till I tell
these same things to my father.
5:10. Then Tobias going in told all these things to his father. Upon
which his father being in admiration, desired that he would come in unto
him.
5:11. So going in he saluted him, and said: Joy be to thee always.
5:12. And Tobias said: What manner of joy shall be to me, who sit in
darkness and see not the light of heaven?
5:13. And the young man said to him: Be of good courage, thy cure from
God is at hand.
5:14. And Tobias said to him: Canst thou conduct my son to Gabelus at
Rages, a city of the Medes? and when thou shalt return, I will pay thee
thy hire.
5:15. And the angel said to him: I will conduct him thither, and bring
him back to thee.
