12 Tobit, when you and Sarah prayed, I was the one who presented your prayers to the glorious God, and when you buried the dead, I told God what you had done.
13 When you left the banquet to bury that man who had been murdered,
14 God sent me to test you, and he also sent me to heal you and to help your daughter-in-law Sarah.
15 I am Raphael, one of the seven angels who stand in the presence of the glorious God.”
16 Tobias and I were so terribly frightened that we fell face down.
17 But Raphael said:“Don't worry! Just remember to always praise God.
18 Don't give me the credit; it was God who did all of this. That's why you must sing praises to God every day.
