Tobit 12:16-18

New Catholic Bible

¹⁶ The two men were deeply shaken and fell to the ground in fear. ¹⁷ But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid.^[a] Peace be with you. Praise God forevermore. ¹⁸ As for me, when I came to you, the decision was not in accord with my will but in accord with the will of God. Therefore, continue to bless him every day of your life and sing hymns of praise to him.
