CHAP. V.
Tobias sent to Rages, 4 He meeteth with the Angel Raphael, which
did conduct him.
1 Tobias then answered, and sayd, Father, I wil do
all things which thou hast commanded me.
2 But howe can I receiue the siluer, seeing I
know him not?
3 noteThen he gaue him the hand writing, & sayd
vnto him, Seeke thee a man, which may goe with
thee, whiles I yet liue, and I will giue him wages, &
go and receiue the money.
4 Therfore when he was gone to seeke a man,
he found Raphael the Angel.
5 But he knewe not, and sayd vnto him, May I
goe with thee into the land of Media? and knowest
thou those places well?
6 To whom the Angel said, I wil go with thee:
for I haue remained with our brother Gabael.
7 Then Tobias sayd to him, Tarie for me, till I
tell my father.
8 Then he sayde vnto him, Goe, and tarie not:
so he went in and sayde to his father, Beholde, I
haue founde one, which will goe with me. Then
he sayde, Call him vnto me, that I may knowe of
what tribe he is, and whether he be faithfull to goe
with thee.
9 So he called him, and he came in, and they
saluted one another.
10 Then Tobit sayde vnto him, Brother, shewe
me of what tribe and familie thou art.
11 To whom he said, Doest thou seeke a stocke
or familie, or an hired man to goe with thy sonne?
Then Tobit sayd vnto him, I would know, brother,
thy kindred and thy name.
12 Then he sayd, I am of the kinred of Azarias
and Ananias the great, and of thy brethren.
13 Then Tobit sayde, note Thou art welcome, brother:
be not now angry with me, because I haue enquired
to knowe thy kinred, & thy familie: for thou
art my brother of an honest & good stocke: for I
know Ananias & Ionathas, sonnes of that great Samaias:
for we went together to Ierusalem to worship,
& offred the first borne, & the tenthes of the
fruites, & they were not deceiued with the error of
our brethren my brother, thou art of a great stocke.
14 But tel me, What wages shal I giue thee? wilt
thou a groate a day and things necessarie, as to mine
owne sonne?
15 Yea, moreouer if ye returne safe, I will adde
some thing to the wages.
16 noteSo they agreed. Then said he to Tobias, Prepare
thy selfe for the iourney, and goe you on Gods
Name. And when his sonne had prepared all things
for the iourney, his father sayde, Goe thou with this
man, and God which dwelleth in heauen, prosper
your iourney, & the Angel of God keepe you companie.
So they went forth both and departed, & the
dogge of the yong man with them.
17 noteBut note Anna his mother wept, & sayd to Tobit,
Why hast thou sent away our sonne? is he not
the staffe of our hand to minister vnto vs?
18 Woulde to God wee had not layde money
vpon money, but that it had bene cast away in respect
of our sonne.
19 For that which God hath giuen vs to liue
with, doeth suffice vs.
20 Then said Tobit, Be not carefull, my sister: he
shal returne in safetie, and thine eyes shal see him.
21 For the good Angel doeth keepe him company,
and his iourney shalbe prosperous, and he shal
returne safe.
22 Then she made an ende of weeping.
