Tobit 8:20-21
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
20 Then he called for Tobias and swore on oath to him in these words:[a] ‘You shall not leave here for fourteen days, but shall stay here eating and drinking with me; and you shall cheer up my daughter, who has been depressed. 21 Take at once half of what I own and return in safety to your father; the other half will be yours when my wife and I die. Take courage, my child. I am your father and Edna is your mother, and we belong to you as well as to your wife[b] now and for ever. Take courage, my child.’
