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.
4. Remember her, my son, because she went through many dangers while pregnant with you. And when she dies, bury her next to me in the same grave.
