1 That same day, Tobit remembered the money that he had left with Gabael at Rages in Media.
2 He thought to himself, “Now that I have asked God to let me die, I should call my son Tobias and tell him about the money.”
3-4 So Tobit called Tobias and said to him, “My son, when I die, give me a proper burial. And after I'm gone, show respect to your mother. Take care of her for the rest of her life, and when she dies, bury her beside me. Remember, she risked her life to bring you into this world, so try to make her happy and never do anything that would worry her.
5 “Every day of your life, keep the Lord our God in mind. Never sin deliberately or disobey any of his commands. Always do what is right and never get involved in anything evil.
6 Be honest, and you will succeed in whatever you do.
