Tobit 4:1-3 Common English Bible (CEB)

1. That day Tobit remembered the silver he had entrusted to Gabael in Rages of Media.

2. He said to himself, I have asked for death; I should call my son Tobias and tell him about the money before I die.

3. So he called for his son Tobias, and Tobias came to him. Tobit said to him: “Give me a proper burial. Honor your mother and take care of her as long as she lives. Do what pleases her and don’t grieve her spirit in any matter.
