4 And, in truth, the remainder of his life was in gladness. And so, with the good accomplishment of the fear of God, he departed in peace.
5 But, in the hour of his death, he called to himself his son Tobias, along with his sons, the seven youths who were his grandsons, and he said to them:
6 "Nineveh will pass away soon. For the word of the Lord goes forward, and our brothers, who have been dispersed away from the land of Israel, shall return to it.
7 Thus its deserted land will be entirely filled again. And the house of God, which was burned like incense within it, will be rebuilt again. And all those who fear God will return there.
8 And the Gentiles will relinquish their idols, and they will enter into Jerusalem, and they will dwell in it.
9 And all the kings of the earth will rejoice in it, adoring the King of Israel.
10 Therefore, my sons, listen to your father. Serve the Lord in truth, and seek to do the things that please him.
