Tobit 13:3-5

Common English Bible

³ Bear witness to him, Israelites,
    in the presence of the nations,
    because he has scattered you
    among them,
⁴     and he has shown you
    his greatness there.
Bring him honor in the presence
of everything that lives,
because he is our Lord:
        he himself is our God;
        he himself is our father,
        and he is God forever and always.
⁵ He will punish you for your unjust acts,
    but he will also show all of you mercy and gather you together^[a]
        out of all the nations among which you have been scattered.
