7. And I wept: and when the sun was set, I went and made a grave, and buried him.
8. And my neighbors mocked me, and said, He is no longer afraid to be put to death for this matter: and yet he fled away: and, behold, he buries the dead again.
9. And the same night I returned from burying him, and slept by the wall of my courtyard, being polluted; and my face was uncovered:
10. and I knew not that there were sparrows in the wall; and, mine eyes being open, the sparrows muted warm dung into mine eyes, and white films came in mine eyes; and I went to the physicians, and they helped me not: but Achiacharus did nourish me, until I went into Elymais.
11. And my wife Anna did spin in the women’s chambers,
12. and did send the work back to the owners. And they on their part paid her wages, and gave her also besides a kid.
13. But when it came to my house, it began to cry, and I said to her, From whence is this kid? is it stolen? render it to the owners; for it is not lawful to eat anything that is stolen.
