Tobit 1:13 In-Context

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.

14 Before the emperor died, I made regular trips to the land of Media to buy things for him there. Once, when I was in the city of Rages in Media, I left some bags of money there with Gabael, Gabrias' brother, and asked him to keep them for me. There were more than 600 pounds of silver coins in those bags.

15 When Shalmaneser died, his son Sennacherib succeeded him as emperor. It soon became so dangerous to travel on the roads in Media that I could no longer go there.
