Tobit 14:14-15
New Catholic Bible

14 Greatly respected, he died at the age of one hundred and seventeen. 15 Before his death he heard of the destruction of Nineveh and witnessed the exile of the city’s inhabitants whom King Cyaxares[a] of Media had taken captive.

Tobiah praised God for everything he had inflicted on the inhabitants of Nineveh and Assyria. Before his death he rejoiced over the fate of Nineveh, and he blessed the Lord God forever and ever. Amen.
