Tobit 8:8-10

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

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

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.

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