9 Anna ran to Tobias and hugged him. Then she said, “Now that I have seen you, my son, I can die in peace.” And she began crying.
10 I jumped up and went stumbling through the gate leading out to the road. Tobias hurried toward me,
11-12 carrying the gall bladder. He breathed on my eyes and said, “Don't worry!” He immediately steadied me and started rubbing the gall bladder on my eyes.
13 Then, with both hands, he began at the corners of my eyes and peeled away the stuff that had made me blind.I hugged Tobias
14 and started crying, then I said, “I can see you, my son! Now life is worth living again.” Then I continued:“Praise God and his great name!Praise his holy angels!I pray for God to be with us!Praise his angels forever.
15 He caused me great suffering,but now I see my son Tobias!”I kept on celebrating and praising God as loud as I could.After a while, Tobias told me how successful his travels had been—not only had he recovered the money, but he had married Sarah, who was near the gate of Nineveh at that very moment.
16 I started walking toward the city gate, still celebrating and praising God. But those who saw me hurrying along were amazed that no one was leading me.
