6 Raguel jumped up and kissed him. He began to cry
7 and say, "Bless you, young man, son of a good and generous father! What a terrible tragedy that such a righteous and charitable man has been made blind!" He embraced his relative Tobias and wept.
8 Raguel’s wife Edna also wept for Tobit, as did Sarah their daughter.
9 Raguel slaughtered a ram from his flock and eagerly entertained his guests. When they had bathed and washed, they reclined to eat dinner. Tobias said to Raphael, "Brother Azariah, tell Raguel that he should give me my relative Sarah as a wife."
10 Raguel overheard Tobias’ comment and said to the young man, “Eat, drink, and be happy tonight! There is no other man except you, my brother, for whom it is proper to marry my daughter Sarah. What’s more, I have no right to give her to any man except for you since you are my nearest relative."But, my lad, I must tell you the truth.
11 I have given her to seven men among our relatives, and they all died the night they tried to have sex with her. Now, however, eat and drink, my son, and may the Lord act on behalf of you both."Tobias replied, "I won’t eat or drink here until you resolve the matters that have to do with me."Raguel said to him, "I will do it. She is given to you according to the ruling of the scroll from Moses, and it has been decided in heaven that she be given to you. Receive your sister! From now on you are her brother and she is your sister. She is given to you from today until eternity. And tonight may the Lord of heaven grant success to both of you, my son, and may he shower you both with mercy and peace."
12 Raguel sent for his daughter Sarah, and she came to him. He took hold of her hand, delivered her to Tobias, and said, "Take her to be your wife according to the Law and according to the ruling written in the scroll from Moses. Take her and lead her to your father safely. And may the God of heaven grant both of you success with peace."
