1 When Tobias and the angel Raphael had entered the city of Ecbatana, Tobias said, “Azarias, my friend, take me to see Raguel as quickly as you can.” The angel brought him to Raguel's house, where they found him sitting at the entrance to his courtyard. Raphael and Tobias greeted him first; then he replied, “Come in, my friends. You are welcome in my home.”Raguel brought them into his house
2 and said to his wife Edna, “Doesn't this young man look just like my cousin Tobit?”
3 Edna asked them, “Where do you come from?”“We are Israelites of the tribe of Naphtali,” Tobias and Raphael answered, “but we are now living in exile in the city of Nineveh in Assyria.”
4 Edna said, “Do you know our cousin Tobit?”“We certainly do know him,” they answered.“How is he?” she asked.
5 “He is alive and well,” they replied.Then Tobias added, “Tobit is my father.”
6 At that Raguel got up, and with tears of joy in his eyes he kissed Tobias.
7 Then he said, “God bless you, my child. Your father is a good and noble man. What a terrible tragedy that such an honest and generous man should have lost his sight!” He threw his arms round Tobias' neck and wept on his shoulder.
