And Tobias said: What manner of joy shall be to me, who sit in darkness, and see not the light of heaven?
13
And the young man said to him: Be of good courage, thy cure from God is at hand.
14
And Tobias said to him: Canst thou conduct my son to Gabelus at Rages, a city of the Medes? and when thou shalt return, I will pay thee thy hire.
15
And the angel said to him: I will conduct him thither, and bring him back to thee.
16
And Tobias said to him: I pray thee, tell me, of what family, or what tribe art thou?
17
And Raphael the angel answered: Dost thou seek the family of him thou hirest, or the hired servant himself to go with thy son?
18
But lest I should make thee uneasy, I am Azarias the son of the great Ananias.
19
And Tobias answered: Thou art of a great family. But I pray thee be not angry that I desired to know thy family.
20
And the angel said to him: I will lead thy son safe, and bring him to thee again safe.
21
And Tobias answering, said: May you have a good journey, and God be with you in your way, and his angel accompany you.
22
Then all things being ready, that were to be carried in their journey, Tobias bade his father and his mother farewell, and they set out both together.
