The XIIII. Chapter.
A noteAnd after that Tobias had gott&ebar; his
sight agayne, he lyued two and xl. yeares,
∧ sawe his childers children. Now
whan he was an hundreth and two yeare olde,
he dyed, ∧ was buried honorably in Niniue.
For whan he was sixe and fiftie yeares
of age, he lost the sight of his eyes, and wh&abar;
he was thre score yeare olde, he gat his sight
agayne. The residue of his life led he in ioye,
and increased well in the feare of God, ∧ departed
in peace.
B But in þe; houre of his death he called vnto
him his sonne Tobias, ∧ seuen yonge springaldes
his sonnes children, and sayde vnto
them: note The destruccion of Niniue is at hande,
for the worde of the LORDE can not fayle,
and oure brethren that are scatred out of
the londe of Israel, shal come thither agayne.
noteAnd the whole londe of it that hath bene
waist, shalbe fylled: note and the house of God
that was brent in it, shalbe buylded againe,
∧ all soch as feare God shall returne thither:
the Heithen also shal forsake their Idols, ∧
come to Ierusalem, and dwell there, and all
the kynges of the earth shalbe glad of her,
and worshipe the LORDE God of Israel.
C And therfore my children, heare youre father:
note Serue the LORDE in faithfulnes, seke
after his will, and do the thinge that pleaseth
him. Commaunde youre children þt; they
do right, geue allmes, be myndefull of God,
and euer to be thankfull vnto him in trueth
and with all their power. Heare me therfore
my childr&ebar;, and abyde not there: but in what
daye so euer ye haue buried youre mother besyde
me, gett you from hence. For I se, that
the wickednes of it shal brynge it to destruccion
and ende.
D After þe; death of his mother, Tobias departed
awaye from Niniue, with his wife
and children, and with his childers children,
∧ came agayne to his father and mother in
lawe, and founde them whole and in a good
age, and toke the care of th&ebar;. And he closed
their eyes, and was heyre vnto all Raguels
goodes, and sawe the fifth generacion and
childers childr&ebar;. And whan he was xcix. yeare
of age, he dyed in the feare of the LORDE,
and his kynsfolkes buried him. And all his
posterite continued in a good life, and
holy conuersacion: so that they
were loued ∧ accepted both
of God and men, and
of all the people
of the londe.
The ende of the boke
of Tobias.
