1
In that day Tobit remembered the money which he had committed to Gabael in Rages of Media,
2
And said with himself, I have wished for death; wherefore do I not call for my son Tobias that I may signify to him of the money before I die?
3
And when he had called him, he said, My son, when I am dead, bury me; and despise not thy mother, but honour her all the days of thy life, and do that which shall please her, and grieve her not.
4
Remember, my son, that she saw many dangers for thee, when thou wast in her womb: and when she is dead, bury her by me in one grave.
5
My son, be mindful of the Lord our God all thy days, and let not thy will be set to sin, or to transgress his commandments: do uprightly all thy life long, and follow not the ways of unrighteousness.
