Tobit 9

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	BIBLIA
1 Then Tobiah called Raphael and said to him:	1 Entonces Tobías llamó a Rafael y le dijo:
2 "Brother Azariah, take along with you four servants and two camels and travel to Rages. Go to Gabael's house and give him this bond. Get the money and then bring him along with you to the wedding celebration.	2 «Hermano Azarías, toma contigo cuatro criados y dos camellos y vete a Ragués.
3 You witnessed the oath that Raguel has sworn; I cannot violate his oath."	3 Dirígete a Gabael, dale el recibo y hazte cargo del dinero; invítale también a que se venga contigo a la boda.
4 For you know that my father is counting the days. If I should delay my return by a single day, I would cause him intense grief.	4 Tú sabes que mi padre lleva cuenta de los días, y uno solo que demore, le doy un gran disgusto;
5 So Raphael, together with the four servants and two camels, traveled to Rages in Media, where they stayed at Gabael's house. Raphael gave Gabael his bond and told him about Tobit's son Tobiah, and that he had married and was inviting him to the wedding celebration. Gabael promptly checked over the sealed moneybags, and they placed them on the camels.	5 ya ves que Ragüel me ha conjurado, y que no puedo desatender su deseo». Rafael se puso en camino para Ragués de Media con los cuatro criados y los dos camellos y fueron a pernoctar en casa de Gabael. Le presentó el recibo y le dio la noticia de que Tobías, hijo de Tobit, se había casado y le invitaba a la boda. Gabael se levantó, le entregó todos los sacos de dinero, con los sellos intactos, y los cargaron sobre los camellos.
6 The following morning they got an early start and traveled to the wedding celebration. When they entered Raguel's house, they found Tobiah reclining at table. He sprang up and greeted Gabael, who wept and blessed him, exclaiming: "O noble and good child, son of a noble and good, upright and charitable man, may the Lord grant heavenly blessing to you and to your wife, and to your wife's father and mother. Blessed be God, because I have seen the very image of my cousin Tobit!"	6 Levantándose de madrugada, partieron juntos para la boda y llegados a casa de Ragüel encontraron a Tobías puesto a la mesa. Y como se levantara a toda prisa para saludarle, Gabael rompió a llorar y le bendijo diciendo: «¡Hombre bueno y honrado, hijo de un hombre honrado y bueno, justo y limosnero! Que el Señor te conceda las bendiciones del cielo a ti, a tu mujer, al padre y a la madre de tu mujer. ¡Bendito sea Dios, que me ha permitido ver un vivo retrato de mi primo Tobit!»
