13 Speak the word and set me free from this life;then I will no longer have to hear these insults.
14 You know, O Lord, that I'm still a virgin;I have never been defiled by a man.
15 Never have I disgraced myself or my father's name,as long as we have lived in this land of exile.My father has no other child to be his heir,and there is no relative whom I can marry.I have already lost seven husbands,so why should I live any longer?But if it is not your will to take my life,at least show mercy to me.Don't let me hear those insults again!”
16 As Tobit and Sarah were praying, God in heaven heard their prayers
17 and sent his angel Raphael to help them. He was sent to remove the white film from Tobit's eyes, so that he could see again, and to arrange a marriage between Sarah and Tobit's son Tobias, who, as her cousin, had the right to marry her. Raphael was also ordered to expel the demon Asmodeus from Sarah. At the very moment that Tobit went back into his house from the courtyard, Sarah, in her house in Ecbatana, was coming downstairs.
