1
Tobias then answered and said, "Father, I will do all things which thou hast commanded me.
2
But how can I receive the money, seeing I know him not?"
3
Then he gave him the handwriting, and said unto him, "Seek thee a man who may go with thee while I yet live, and I will give him wages; and go and receive the money."
4
Therefore when he went to seek a man, he found Raphael, who was an angel.
5
But he knew it not; and he said unto him, "Canst thou go with me to Rages? And knowest thou those places well?"
6
To him the angel said, "I will go with thee; and I know the way well, for I have lodged with our brother Gabael."
7
Then Tobias said unto him, "Tarry for me, till I tell my father."
8
Then he said unto him, "Go, and tarry not." So he went in and said to his father, "Behold, I have found one who will go with me." Then he said, "Call him unto me, that I may know of what tribe he is and whether he be a trusty man to go with thee."
9
So he called him; and he came in, and they saluted one another.
10
Then Tobit said unto him, "Brother, show me of what tribe and family thou art."
