Tobit 12:5-7

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁵ So Tobias^[a] called him and said, “Take for your wages half of all that you brought back, and farewell.”

Raphael’s Exhortation

⁶ Then Raphael^[b] called the two of them privately and said to them, “Bless God and acknowledge him in the presence of all the living for the good things he has done for you. Bless and sing praise to his name. With fitting honor declare to all people the deeds^[c] of God. Do not be slow to acknowledge him. ⁷ It is good to conceal the secret of a king, but to acknowledge and reveal the works of God, and with fitting honor to acknowledge him. Do good and evil will not overtake you.
