Tobit 13:4-6

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁴     He has shown you his greatness even there.
Exalt him in the presence of every living being,
    because he is our^[a] Lord, and he is our God;
    he is our Father, and he is God forever.
⁵ He will afflict^[b] you for your iniquities,
    but he will again show mercy on all of you.
He will gather you from all the nations
    among whom you have been scattered.^(A)
6 If you turn to him with all your heart and with all your soul,
    to do what is true before him,
then he will turn to you
    and will no longer hide his face from you.
So now see what he has done for you;
    acknowledge him at the top of your voice.
Bless the Lord of righteousness,
    and exalt the King of the ages.^[c]
In the land of my exile I acknowledge him
    and show his power and majesty to a nation of sinners:
‘Turn back, you sinners, and do what is right before him;
    perhaps he may look with favor upon you and show you mercy.’^(B)
