1 Tobias of the tribe, and citie of Nepthali (which is in
the vpper partes of Galilee aboue Naasson, beyond the
way, that leadeth to the weast, hauing on the right hand the
citie Sephet) note
2 when he was captiue in the daies of Salmanasar
the king of the Assyrians, yet being in captiuitie, he forsooke
not the way of truth,
3 so that he imparted al things
that he could make, dayly to his brethren captiues with him,
which were of his kinred.
4 And whereas he was yonger then
al the tribe of Nephthali, yet did he no childish thing in his
worke.
5 Finally when note al went to the golden calues, which
Ieroboam the king of Israel had made, he alone fled the companies
of al,
6 and went into Ierusalem to the temple of our
Lord, and there adored our Lord God of Israel, offering faithfully
al his first fruites, and his rithes,
7 so that in the third
yeare he ministred al the tithing to the proselytes, and strangers.
8 These thinges and the like to these did he obserue
being a childe according to the law of God.
9 But when he
was a man, he tooke to wife Anna of his owne tribe, and he
beg at a sonne of her, geuing him his owne name,
10 whom
from his infancie he taught to feare God, and to abstayne
from al sinne.
11 Therfore when by the captiuitie he was
come with his wife and sonne into the citie of Niniue, with
al his tribe,
12 (when al did eate of the meates of the Gentiles)
he kept his soule, and neuer was contaminated in their meates.
13 And because he was mindful of our Lord in al his hart,
God gaue him grace in the sight of Salmanasar the king,
14 and he gaue him leaue to goe whithersoeuer he would,
hauing libertie to doe what thinges soeuer he would.
15 He
therfore went to al that were in the captiuitie, and gaue them
holesome admonitions.
16 And when he was come into
Rages a citie of the Medes, and had ten talentes of siluer of
these wherwith he had beene honoured of the king:
17 and
-- --
when in a great multitude of his kinred, he saw Gabelus stand
in nede, who was of his tribe, vnder a bil of his hand he gaue
him the sayd weight of siluer.
18 But after much time, Salmanasar
the king being dead, when Sennacherib his sonne
reigned for him, and estemed the children of Israel odious in
his sight:
19 Tobias dayly went through al his kinred, and
conforted them, and diuided to euerie one, as he was able,
of his goods:
20 the hungrie he nourished, and to the naked
he gaue clothes, and the dead, and them that were slayne, he
buryed carefully.
21 Finally when king Sennacherib was returned
fleing from Iewrie the shaughter, that God had made
about him for his blasphemie, and being angrie slewe manie
of the children of Israel, Tobias buryed their bodies.
22 But
when it was told the king, he commanded him to be slayne,
and tooke al his substance.
23 But Tobias fleing with his sonne
and with his wife, nakedly lay hid, because manie loued
him.
24 But after fourtie fiue dayes the king was slayne of his
owne sonnes,
25 and Tobias returned into his house, and al
his substance was restored to him.
