Tobit 7:1-7 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

1. And so they went to Raguel, and Raguel received them with gladness.

2. And Raguel, gazing upon Tobias, said to Anna his wife, "How much like my cousin is this young man!"

3. And when he had spoken this, he said, "Which of our brethren are you from, young men?"

4. But they said, "We are from the tribe of Naphtali, from the captivity of Nineveh."

5. And Raguel said to them, "Do you know my brother Tobit?" They said to him, "We know him."

6. And since he was saying many good things about him, the Angel said to Raguel, "The Tobit about whom you inquire is the father of this young man."

7. And Raguel threw himself towards him and kissed him with tears and weeping upon his neck, saying, "May a blessing be upon you, my son, because you are the son of a good and most noble man."
