ΚΑΙ ἦλθον εἰς Ἐκβάτανα καὶ παρεγένοντο εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν Ραγουήλ, Σάρρα δὲ ὑπήντησεν αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐχαιρέτισεν αὐτοὺς καὶ αὐτοὶ αὐτήν, καὶ εἰσήγαγεν αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν. καὶ εἶπε Ραγουὴλ Ἔδνᾳ τῇ γυναικὶ αὐτοῦ· ὡς ὅμοιος ὁ νεανίσκος Τωβὶτ τῷ ἀνεψιῷ μου; καὶ ἠρώτησεν αὐτούς Ραγουήλ· πόθεν ἐστέ, ἀδελφοί; καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ· ἐκ τῶν υἱῶν Νεφθαλὶμ τῶν αἰχμαλώτων ἐκ Νινευῆ. καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· γινώσκετε Τωβὶτ τὸν ἀδελφὸν ἡμῶν; οἱ δὲ εἶπον· γινώσκομεν. καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· ὑγιαίνει; οἱ δὲ εἶπαν· καὶ ζῇ καὶ ὑγιαίνει. καὶ εἶπε Τωβίας· πατήρ μού ἐστι. καὶ ἀνεπήδησε Ραγουὴλ καὶ κατεφίλησεν αὐτὸν καὶ ἔκλαυσε καὶ εὐλόγησεν αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· ὁ τοῦ καλοῦ καὶ ἀγαθοῦ ἀνθρώπου υἱός· καὶ ἀκούσας ὅτι Τωβὶτ ἀπώλεσε τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς ἑαυτοῦ, ἐλυπήθη καὶ ἔκλαυσε. καὶ Ἔδνα ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ καὶ Σάρρα ἡ θυγάτηρ αὐτοῦ ἔκλαυσαν καὶ ὑπεδέξαντο αὐτοὺς προθύμως· καὶ ἔθυσαν κριὸν προβάτων καὶ παρέθηκαν ὄψα πλείονα. εἶπε δὲ Τωβίας τῷ Ραφαήλ· Ἀζαρία ἀδελφέ, λάλησον ὑπὲρ ὧν ἔλεγες ἐν τῇ πορείᾳ, καὶ τελεσθήτω τὸ πρᾶγμα. καὶ μετέδωκε τὸν λόγον τῷ Ραγουήλ· καὶ εἶπε Ραγουὴλ πρὸς Τωβίαν· φάγε, πίε καὶ ἡδέως γίνου, σοὶ γὰρ καθήκει τὸ παιδίον μου λαβεῖν· πλὴν ὑποδείξω σοι τὴν ἀλήθειαν. ἔδωκα τὸ παιδίον μου ἑπτὰ ἀνδράσι, καὶ ὁπότε ἐὰν εἰσεπορεύοντο πρὸς αὐτήν, ἀπέθνησκον ὑπὸ τὴν νύκτα. ἀλλὰ τὸ νῦν ἔχον, ἡδέως γίνου. καὶ εἶπε Τωβίας· οὐ γεύομαι οὐδὲν ὧδε, ἕως ἂν στήσητε καὶ σταθῆτε πρός με. καὶ εἶπε Ραγουήλ· κομίζου αὐτὴν ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν κατὰ τὴν κρίσιν· σὺ δέ ἀδελφὸς εἶ αὐτῆς, καὶ αὐτὴ σού ἐστιν· ὁ δὲ ἐλεήμων Θεὸς εὐοδώσει ὑμῖν τὰ κάλλιστα. καὶ ἐκάλεσε Σάρραν τὴν θυγατέρα αὐτοῦ, καὶ λαβὼν τῆς χειρὸς αὐτῆς παρέδωκεν αὐτὴν Τωβία γυναῖκα καὶ εἶπεν· ἰδοὺ κατὰ τὸν νόμον Μωυσέως κομίζου αὐτὴν καὶ ἄπαγε πρὸς τὸν πατέρα σου· καὶ εὐλόγησεν αὐτούς. καὶ ἐκάλεσεν Ἔδναν τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ· καὶ λαβὼν βιβλίον ἔγραψε συγγραφήν, καὶ ἐσφραγίσατο. καὶ ἤρξαντο ἐσθίειν. καὶ ἐκάλεσε Ραγουὴλ Ἔδναν τήν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπε αὐτῇ· ἀδελφή, ἑτοίμασον τὸ ἕτερον ταμιεῖον καὶ εἰσάγαγε αὐτήν. καὶ ἐποίησεν ὡς εἶπε καὶ εἰσήγαγεν αὐτὴν ἐκεῖ, καὶ ἔκλαυσε· καὶ ἀπεδέξατο τὰ δάκρυα τῆς θυγατρὸς αὐτῆς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ· θάρσει, τέκνον, ὁ Κύριος τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ τῆς γῆς δῴη σοι χάριν ἀντὶ τῆς λύπης σου ταύτης· θάρσει, θύγατερ.
