Tobit 9
1Then Tobias called Raphael, and said to him,Καὶ ἐκάλεσε Τωβίας τὸν Ῥαφαὴλ, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ,
2Brother Azarias, take with you a servant, and two camels, and go to Rages of Media to Gabael, and bring me the money, and bring him to the wedding.Ἀζαρία ἀδελφὲ, λάβε μετὰ σεαυτοῦ παῖδα καὶ δύο καμήλους, καὶ πορεύθητι ἐν Ῥάγοις τῆς Μηδίας παρὰ Γαβαὴλ, καὶ κόμισαί μοι τὸ ἀργύριον, καὶ αὐτὸν ἄγε μοι εἰς τόν γάμον,
3For Raguel has sworn that I shall not depart.διότι ὀμώμοκε Ῥαγουὴλ, μὴ ἐξελθεῖν με.
4But my father counts the days; and if I wait long, he will be very sorry.Καὶ ὁ πατήρ μου ἀριθμεῖ τὰς ἡμέρας, καὶ ἐὰν χρονίσω μέγα, ὀδυνηθήσεται λίαν.
5So Raphael went out, and lodged with Gabael, and gave him the handwriting: who brought forth bags which were sealed up, and gave them to him.Καὶ ἐπορεύθη Ῥαφαὴλ, καὶ ηὐλίσθη παρὰ Γαβαὴλ, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ τὸ χειρόγραφον· ὃς δὲ προήνεγκε τὰ θυλάκια ἐν ταῖς σφραγίσι, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ.
6And early in the morning they went forth both together, and came to the wedding: and Tobias blessed his wife.Καὶ ὤρθρευσαν κοινῶς, καὶ ἦλθον εἰς τὸν γάμον· καὶ εὐλόγησε Τωβίας τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ.
