DRC, VulgClementine, KJV - Tobit - 8

8:1  And after they had supped, they brought in the young man to her.

8:1  Postquam vero cœnaverunt, introduxerunt juvenem ad eam.

8:2  And Tobias remembering the angel's word, took out of his bag part of the liver, and laid it upon burning coals.

8:2  Recordatus itaque Tobias sermonum angeli, protulit de cassidili suo partem jecoris, posuitque eam super carbones vivos.

8:3  Then the angel Raphael took the devil, and bound him in the desert of upper Egypt.

8:3  Tunc Raphaël angelus apprehendit dæmonium, et religavit illud in deserto superioris Ægypti.

8:4  Then Tobias exhorted the virgin, and said to her: Sara, arise, and let us pray to God to day, and to morrow, and the next day: because for these three nights we are joined to God: and when the third night is over, we will be in our own wedlock.

8:4  Tunc hortatus est virginem Tobias, dixitque ei : Sara, exsurge, et deprecemur Deum hodie, et cras, et secundum cras : quia his tribus noctibus Deo jungimur ; tertia autem transacta nocte, in nostro erimus conjugio.

8:5  For we are the children of saints, and we must not be joined together like heathens that know not God.

8:5  Filii quippe sanctorum sumus, et non possumus ita conjungi sicut gentes quæ ignorant Deum.

8:6  So they both arose, and prayed earnestly both together that health might be given them.

8:6  Surgentes autem pariter, instanter orabant ambo simul, ut sanitas daretur eis.

8:7  And Tobias said: Lord God of our fathers, may the heavens and the earth, and the sea, and the fountains, and the rivers, and all thy creatures that are in them, bless thee.

8:7  Dixitque Tobias : Domine Deus patrum nostrorum, benedicant te cæli et terræ, mareque et fontes, et flumina, et omnes creaturæ tuæ quæ in eis sunt.

8:8  Thou madest Adam of the slime of the earth, and gavest him Eve for a helper.

8:8  Tu fecisti Adam de limo terræ, dedistique ei adjutorium Hevam.

8:9  And now, Lord, thou knowest, that not for fleshly lust do I take my sister to wife, but only for the love of posterity, in which thy name may be blessed for ever and ever.

8:9  Et nunc Domine, tu scis quia non luxuriæ causa accipio sororem meam conjugem, sed sola posteritatis dilectione, in qua benedicatur nomen tuum in sæcula sæculorum.

8:10  Sara also said: Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us, and let us grow old both together in health.

8:10  Dixit quoque Sara : Miserere nobis Domine, miserere nobis, et consenescamus ambo pariter sani.

8:11  And it came to pass about the cockcrowing, Raguel ordered his servants to be called for, and they went with him together to dig a grave.

8:11  Et factum est circa pullorum cantum, accersiri jussit Raguel servos suos, et abierunt cum eo pariter ut foderent sepulchrum.

8:12  For he said: Lest perhaps it may have happened to him, in like manner as it did to the other seven husbands, that went in unto her.

8:12  Dicebat enim : Ne forte simili modo evenerit ei, quo et ceteris illis septem viris qui sunt ingressi ad eam.

8:13  And when they had prepared the pit, Raguel went back to his wife, and said to her:

8:13  Cumque parassent fossam, reversus Raguel ad uxorem suam, dixit ei :

8:14  Send one of thy maids, and let her see if he be dead, that I may bury him before it be day.

8:14  Mitte unam de ancillis tuis, et videat si mortuus est, ut sepeliam eum antequam illucescat dies.

8:15  So she sent one of her maidservants, who went into the chamber, and found them safe and sound, sleeping both together.

8:15  At illa misit unam ex ancillis suis. Quæ ingressa cubiculum, reperit eos salvos et incolumes, secum pariter dormientes.

8:16  And returning she brought the good news: and Raguel and Anna his wife blessed the Lord,

8:16  Et reversa nuntiavit bonum nuntium : et benedixerunt Dominum, Raguel videlicet et Anna uxor ejus,

8:17  And said: We bless thee, O Lord God of Israel, because it hath not happened as we suspected.

8:17  et dixerunt : Benedicimus te, Domine Deus Israël, quia non contigit quemadmodum putabamus.

8:18  For thou hast shewn thy mercy to us, and hast shut out from us the enemy that persecuted us.

8:18  Fecisti enim nobiscum misericordiam tuam, et exclusisti a nobis inimicum persequentem nos.

8:19  And thou hast taken pity upon two only children. Make them, O Lord, bless thee more fully: and to offer up to thee a sacrifice of thy praise, and of their health, that all nations may know, that thou alone art God in all the earth.

8:19  Misertus es autem duobus unicis. Fac eos, Domine, plenius benedicere te, et sacrificium tibi laudis tuæ et suæ sanitatis offerre, ut cognoscat universitas gentium quia tu es Deus solus in universa terra.

8:20  And immediately Raguel commanded his servants, to fill up the pit they had made, before it was day.

8:20  Statimque præcepit servis suis Raguel ut replerent fossam quam fecerant priusquam elucesceret.

8:21  And he spoke to his wife to make ready a feast, and prepare all kind of provisions that are necessary for such as go a journey.

8:21  Uxori autem suæ dixit ut instrueret convivium, et præpararet omnia quæ in cibos erant iter agentibus necessaria.

8:22  He caused also two fat kine, and four wethers to be killed, and a banquet to be prepared for all his neighbours, and all his friends.

8:22  Duas quoque pingues vaccas, et quatuor arietes, occidi fecit, et parari epulas omnibus vicinis suis, cunctisque amicis.

8:23  And Raguel adjured Tobias, to abide with him two weeks.

8:23  Et adjuravit Raguel Tobiam ut duas hebdomadas moraretur apud se.

8:24  And of all things which Raguel possessed, he gave one half to Tobias, and made a writing, that the half that remained should after their decease come also to Tobias.

8:24  De omnibus autem quæ possidebat Raguel, dimidiam partem dedit Tobiæ, et fecit scripturam, ut pars dimidia quæ supererat, post obitum eorum Tobiæ dominio deveniret.
