Tobit 10:5-7

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁵ “Am I not distressed, my child, that I let you go, you who are the light of my eyes?” ⁶ But Tobit said to her, “Be still and stop worrying; he is well.” ⁷ And she answered him, “Be still and stop deceiving me; my child has perished.” And she went out every day to the road by which they had left; she ate nothing in the daytime, and throughout the nights she never stopped mourning for her son Tobi′as, until the fourteen days of the wedding feast had expired which Rag′uel had sworn that he should spend there.
