Tobit would reply, “Be quiet! Don’t get so upset, my sister! He’s fine! Surely something has distracted them there. Moreover, the man traveling with him is trustworthy and one of our relatives. Don’t grieve about him, my sister. He’ll get here soon.”
And Tobias said to her: Hold thy peace, and be not troubled, our son is safe: that man with whom we sent him is very trusty.
Tobit tried to comfort her. Calm down, my dear, he said. Don't worry. He will be all right. Something unexpected is probably keeping them there longer than we counted on. Besides, his companion is a reliable man and a relative at that. Don't let yourself get so upset over him, dear. I'm sure he is already on his way home.
But Tobit kept telling her: “Be still, do not worry, my sister; he is safe! Probably they have to take care of some unexpected business there. The man who is traveling with him is trustworthy and one of our kindred. So do not grieve over him, my sister. He will be here soon.”
However, Tobit continued to reassure her: “Hush! Do not worry, my dear. He is all right. Probably something unexpected has happened to delay them. The man who is accompanying him is trustworthy and one of our kindred. So do not grieve for him, my dear. He will be here soon.”
But Tobit kept saying to her, ‘Be quiet and stop worrying, my dear; he is all right. Probably something unexpected has happened there. The man who went with him is trustworthy and is one of our own kin. Do not grieve for him, my dear; he will soon be here.’
But Tobit kept saying to her, ‘Be quiet and stop worrying, my dear; he is all right. Probably something unexpected has happened there. The man who went with him is trustworthy and is one of our own kin. Do not grieve for him, my dear; he will soon be here.’
But Tobit kept saying to her, “Be quiet and stop worrying, my dear; he is all right. Probably something unexpected has happened there. The man who went with him is trustworthy and is one of our own kin. Do not grieve for him, my dear; he will soon be here.”
But Tobit kept saying to her, “Be quiet and stop worrying, my sister; he is all right. Something must have happened to delay them. The man who went with him is trustworthy and is one of our own kin. Do not grieve for him, my sister; he will be here soon.”
But Tobit said to her, “Be still and stop worrying; he is well.”
But Tobit said to her, “Be still and stop worrying; he is well.”
To whom Tobit said, Be still, and do not thou be troubled [or disturbed]; our son is whole and safe; for that man is faithful enough, with whom we sent him forth.
