Tobia 2

NOVA VULGATA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Et sub Asarhaddon rege descendi in domum meam, et reddita est mihi uxormea Anna et filius meus Thobias. In Pentecoste, die festo nostro, qui estsanctus a Septimanis, factum est mihi prandium bonum, et discubui, ut pranderem.	1 Now when I was come home again, and my wife Anna was restored unto me, with my son Tobias, in the feast of Pentecost, which is the holy feast of the seven weeks, there was a good dinner prepared me, in the which I sat down to eat.
2 Et apposita est mihi mensa, et vidi pulmentaria complura. Et dixi Thobiaefilio meo: “ Vade et, quemcumque pauperem inveneris ex fratribus nostris, quisunt captivi in Nineve, qui in mente habet Dominum in toto corde suo, huncadduc, et manducabit pariter mecum; ecce sustineo te, fili, donec venias ”.	2 And when I saw abundance of meat, I said to my son, Go and bring what poor man soever thou shalt find out of our brethren, who is mindful of the Lord; and, lo, I tarry for thee.
3 Et abiit Thobias quaerere aliquem pauperem ex fratribus nostris et reversusdixit mihi: “ Pater! ”. Et ego dixi illi: “ Ecce ego, fili ”. Etrespondens ait: “ Ecce unus ex natione nostra occisus est et proiectus est inforo et nunc ibidem laqueo suffocatus est ”.	3 But he came again, and said, Father, one of our nation is strangled, and is cast out in the marketplace.
4 Et exsiliens reliqui prandium,antequam ex illo gustarem, et sustuli eum de platea in unam domum, donec solcaderet, et illum sepelirem.	4 Then before I had tasted of any meat, I started up, and took him up into a room until the going down of the sun.
5 Et reversus lavi et manducavi panem meum cumluctu	5 Then I returned, and washed myself, and ate my meat in heaviness,
6 et rememoratus sum sermonis prophetae Amos, quem locutus est in Betheldicens: “ Convertentur omnes dies festi vestri in luctum, et omnia cantica vestra in lamentationem ”.	6 Remembering that prophecy of Amos, as he said, Your feasts shall be turned into mourning, and all your mirth into lamentation.
7 Et lacrimatus sum. Et, postquam sol occidit, abii et fodiens sepelivi illum.	7 Therefore I wept: and after the going down of the sun I went and made a grave, and buried him.
8 Et proximi mei deridebant me dicentes: “ Non timet adhuc hic homo; iam eniminquisitus est huius rei causa, ut occideretur, et fugit et ecce iterum sepelitmortuos ”.	8 But my neighbours mocked me, and said, This man is not yet afraid to be put to death for this matter: who fled away; and yet, lo, he burieth the dead again.
9 Et lavi ea nocte, postquam illum sepelivi, et introivi in atriummeum et obdormivi circa parietem atrii, et facies mea nuda erat propter aestum.	9 The same night also I returned from the burial, and slept by the wall of my courtyard, being polluted and my face was uncovered:
10 Et ignorabam quoniam passeres in pariete super me erant, quorum stercorainsederunt in oculos meos calida et induxerunt albugines. Et ibam ad medicos, utcurarer, et, quanto inunxerunt me medicamentis, tanto magis oculi meiexcaecabantur maculis, donec perexcaecatus sum. Et eram inutilis meis oculisannis quattuor, et omnes fratres mei dolebant pro me. Achicarus autem pascebatme annis duobus, priusquam iret in Elymaida.	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 a whiteness came in mine eyes: and I went to the physicians, but they helped me not: moreover Achiacharus did nourish me, until I went into Elymais.
11 In illo tempore Anna uxor meamercede deserviebat operibus mulierum lanam faciens.	11 And my wife Anna did take women's works to do.
12 Et remittebat dominiseorum, et dabant ei mercedem. Septima autem die mensis Dystri detexuit texturamet reddidit illam dominis, et dederunt ei mercedem totam et dederunt ei protextura haedum de capris.	12 And when she had sent them home to the owners, they paid her wages, and gave her also besides a kid.
13 Et cum introisset ad me haedus, coepit clamare. Etvocavi eam et dixi: “ Unde est hic haedus? Ne forte furtivus sit, redde illumdominis suis; nobis enim non licet manducare quidquam furtivum ”.	13 And when it was in my house, and began to cry, I said unto her, From whence is this kid? is it not stolen? render it to the owners; for it is not lawful to eat any thing that is stolen.
14 Et illamihi dixit: “ Munere mihi datus est supra mercedem ”. Et ego non credebamei, sed dicebam, ut restitueret illum dominis, et erubescebam coram illa huiusrei causa. Et respondens dixit mihi: “ Et ubi sunt eleemosynae tuae? Ubi suntiustitiae tuae? Ecce, omnia tibi nota sunt ”.	14 But she replied upon me, It was given for a gift more than the wages. Howbeit I did not believe her, but bade her render it to the owners: and I was abashed at her. But she replied upon me, Where are thine alms and thy righteous deeds? behold, thou and all thy works are known.
