TOB 14:1  And the words of Tobias were ended. And after Tobias was restored to his sight, he lived two and forty years, and saw the children of his grandchildren.

TOB 14:2  And after he had lived a hundred and two years, he was buried honourably in Ninive.

TOB 14:3  For he was six and fifty years old when he lost the sight of his eyes, and sixty when he recovered it again.

TOB 14:4  And the rest of his life was in joy, and with great increase of the fear of God he departed in peace.

TOB 14:5  And at the hour of his death he called unto him his son Tobias and his children, seven young men, his grandsons, and said to them:

TOB 14:6  The destruction of Ninive is at hand: for the word of the Lord must be fulfilled: and our brethren, that are scattered abroad from the land of Israel, shall return to it.

TOB 14:7  And all the land thereof that is desert shall be filled with people, and the house of God which is burnt in it, shall again be rebuilt: and all that fear God shall return thither.

TOB 14:8  And the Gentiles shall leave their idols, and shall come into Jerusalem, and shall dwell in it.

TOB 14:9  And all the kings of the earth shall rejoice in it, adoring the King of Israel.

TOB 14:10  Hearken therefore, my children, to your father: serve the Lord in truth, and seek to do the things that please him:

TOB 14:11  And command your children that they do justice and almsdeeds, and that they be mindful of God, and bless him at all times in truth, and with all their power.

TOB 14:12  And now, children, hear me, and do not stay here: but as soon as you shall bury your mother by me in one sepulchre, without delay direct your steps to depart hence:

TOB 14:13  For I see that its iniquity will bring it to destruction.

TOB 14:14  And it came to pass that after the death of his mother, Tobias departed out of Ninive with his wife, and children, and children’s children, and returned to his father and mother in law.

TOB 14:15  And he found them in health in a good old age: and he took care of them, and he closed their eyes: and all the inheritance of Raguel’s house came to him: and he saw his children’s children to the fifth generation.

TOB 14:16  And after he had lived ninety-nine years in the fear of the Lord, with joy they buried him.
