1. Then Tobias turned to Raphael.

1. Then Tobias called Raphael and said to him,

2. 'Brother Azarias,' he said, 'take four servants and two camels and leave for Rhages.

2. "Brother Azarias, take a servant and two camels with you and go to Gabael at Rages in Media and get the money for me; and bring him to the wedding feast.

3. Go to Gabael's house, give him the receipt and see about the money; then invite him to come with you to my wedding feast.

3. For Raguel has sworn that I should not leave;

4. You know that my father must be counting the days and that I cannot lose a single one without worrying him.

4. but my father is counting the days, and if I delay long he will be greatly distressed."

5. You see what Raguel has pledged himself to do; I am bound by his oath.' So Raphael left for Rhages in Media with the four servants and two camels. They stayed with Gabael, and Raphael showed him the receipt. He told him about the marriage of Tobias son of Tobit and gave him his invitation to the wedding feast. Gabael started counting out the sacks to him-- the seals were intact-- and they loaded them on to the camels.

5. So Raphael made the journey and stayed over night with Gabael. He gave him the receipt, and Gabael brought out the money bags with their seals intact and gave them to him.

6. Early in the morning they set off together for the feast, and reached Raguel's house where they found Tobias dining. He rose to greet Gabael, who burst into tears and blessed him with the words, 'Excellent son of a father beyond reproach, just and generous in his dealings! The Lord give heaven's blessing to you, to your wife, to your wife's father and mother! Blessed be God for granting me the sight of this living image of my cousin Tobit!'

6. In the morning they both got up early and came to the wedding feast. And Gabael blessed Tobias and his wife.
