1. When they entered Ecbatana, Tobias said to him, "Brother Azariah, bring me at once to Raguel our relative." So Azariah took him to Raguel’s house. They found him sitting at the gate of the courtyard and greeted him first.Raguel said to them, "Many greetings, brothers. You have come generously and in health!" Raguel brought them into his house
2. and said to his wife Edna, "This young man looks so much like my relative Tobit!"
3. Then Edna asked them, "Where are you from, brothers?"They answered her, "We are from the Naphtalites, who are captives in Nineveh."
4. She asked them, "Do you know our relative Tobit?"They replied, "We do indeed know him."Then she asked them, "Is he well?"
5. They answered, "He is alive and well." Tobias said, "He is my father."
6. Raguel jumped up and kissed him. He began to cry
7. and say, "Bless you, young man, son of a good and generous father! What a terrible tragedy that such a righteous and charitable man has been made blind!" He embraced his relative Tobias and wept.
8. Raguel’s wife Edna also wept for Tobit, as did Sarah their daughter.
9. Raguel slaughtered a ram from his flock and eagerly entertained his guests. When they had bathed and washed, they reclined to eat dinner. Tobias said to Raphael, "Brother Azariah, tell Raguel that he should give me my relative Sarah as a wife."
10. Raguel overheard Tobias’ comment and said to the young man, “Eat, drink, and be happy tonight! There is no other man except you, my brother, for whom it is proper to marry my daughter Sarah. What’s more, I have no right to give her to any man except for you since you are my nearest relative."But, my lad, I must tell you the truth.
