1 Therefore, when Tobit considered that his prayer was heard, so that he might be able to die, he called his son Tobias to him.
2 And he said to him: "My son, hear the words of my mouth, and set them, like a foundation, in your heart.
3 When God will receive my soul, bury my body. And you shall honor your mother, all the days of her life.
4 For you are obliged to be mindful of what great perils she suffered because of you in her womb.
5 But when she too will have completed the time of her life, bury her near me.
