Tobit 9:2-4

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

² If I should give myself to be thy servant I should not make a worthy return for thy care.

³ However, I beseech thee, to take with thee beasts and servants, and to go to Gabelus to Rages the city of the Medes: and to restore to him his note of hand, and receive of him the money, and desire him to come to my wedding.

⁴ For thou knowest that my father numbereth the days: and if I stay one day more, his soul will be afflicted.
