Chap. XIIII.
Old Tobias dieth at the age of an hundred and two yeares, 5. exhorteth his
sonne and nephewes to pietie, forshewing that Niniue shal be destroyed,
and Ierusalem reedified. 14. yonger Tobias returneth with his familie to
Raguel, and dieth happely as he had liued.
1 And the wordes of Tobias were ended. And after that
Tobias was restored to his sight, he liued two and fourtie
yeares, and saw the children of his nephewes.
2 Therfore
an hundred and two yeares being accomplished, he was buried
honorably in Niniue.
3 For being six and fiftie yeares old
he lost the sight of his eies, and being threescore he receiued
it agayne.
4 And the rest of his life was in ioy, and with great
increase of the feare of God he went forward in peace.
5 And at the houre of his death he called vnto him Tobias
his sonne, and his seuen yong sonnes, his nephewes, and sayd
to them:
6 The destruction of Niniue is neere: for the word
of our Lord fayleth not: and our brethren, which are dispersed
from the land of Israel, shal returne to it.
7 And al the
desert land therof shal be replenished, and the house of God
which is burnt in it, shal agayne be reedefied: and thither
shal al returne that feare God,
8 and the Gentiles shal forsake
their idols, and shal come into Ierusalem, and shal inhabite
in it,
9 and note al the kings of the earth shal reioyce in it, adoring
the king of Israel.
10 Heare ye therfore my children your
father: serue our Lord in truth, and note seeke to doe the thinges
that please him:
11 and command your children that they
doe iustices and almes deedes, that they be mindeful of God,
and blesse him at al time in truth, and in al their power.
-- --
12 Now therfore children heare me, and doe not tarie here:
but what day soeuer you shal burie your mother by me in one
sepulchre, from thenceforth directe your steppes to depart
hence:
13 for I see that the iniquitie therof wil giue it an end.
14 And it came to passe after the death of his mother, Tobias
departed out of Niniue with his wife, and children, and childrens
children, and returned to his father and mother in law.
15 And he found them in health in good old age: and he tooke
care of them, and he closed their eies: and al the inheritance
of Raguels house he receiued: & he saw the fifth generation,
his childrens children.
16 And nintie nine yeares being accomplished
in the feare of our Lord, with ioy they buried him.
17 And note al his kinred, and al his generation continewed in
good life, and in holie conuersation, so that they were acceptable
both to God, and to men, and to al the inhabitantes in
in the land.
