Tobit 8:16-18

New Catholic Bible

¹⁶ Blessed are you for having given me joy; that which I feared did not occur.
Rather you have dealt with us according to your great mercy.
¹⁷ Blessed are you for showing compassion
    to two only children.
Be merciful to them, Master, and keep them safe;
    allow them to live their lives fully
    in happiness and in mercy.”
