Tobit 1:11

11 but I refused to do so.

Tobit 1:11 In-Context

9 When I grew up, I married Anna, a member of my own tribe. We had a son and named him Tobias.
10 Later, I was taken captive and deported to Assyria, and that is how I came to live in Nineveh. While we lived in Nineveh, all my relatives and the other Jews used to eat the same kind of food as the other people who lived there,
11 but I refused to do so.
12 Since I took seriously the commands of the Most High God,
13 he made Emperor Shalmaneser respect me, and I was placed in charge of purchasing all the emperor's supplies.
