Tobit 7:6 In-Context

4 Edna said, "Do you know our cousin Tobit?" "We certainly do know him," they answered. "How is he?" she asked.
5 "He is alive and well," they replied. Then Tobias added, "Tobit is my father."
6 At that Raguel got up, and with tears of joy in his eyes he kissed Tobias.
7 Then he said, "God bless you, my child. Your father is a good and noble man. What a terrible tragedy that such an honest and generous man should have lost his sight!" He threw his arms around Tobias' neck and wept on his shoulder.
8 His wife Edna and his daughter Sarah also wept for Tobit. Raguel gave Tobias and Raphael a warm welcome and had one of his rams slaughtered. After the guests had bathed and were about to sit down to eat, Tobias said to Raphael, "Azarias, my friend, when are you going to ask Raguel to let me marry Sarah?"
