多俾亞傳 |
Tobit |
1那時,多俾亞叫了辣法耳來,對他說: |
1Then Tobiah called Raphael and said to him: |
2「阿匝黎雅兄!請你帶上四個僕人,兩匹駱駝,到辣傑斯,往加貝羅那裏去,把契據交給他,好把銀子索回來;並請他與你同來參與婚禮。 |
2"Brother Azariah, take along with you four servants and two camels and travel to Rages. Go to Gabael's house and give him this bond. Get the money and then bring him along with you to the wedding celebration. |
3你知道我父親在計算着日期,若我耽誤了一天,必使他十分掛心。 |
3You witnessed the oath that Raguel has sworn; I cannot violate his oath." |
4你也看見辣古耳發了什麼誓,因此,我不能反抗他的誓約。」 |
4For you know that my father is counting the days. If I should delay my return by a single day, I would cause him intense grief. |
5辣法耳於是帶了四個僕人,兩匹駱駝,往瑪待辣傑斯去了,住在加貝羅的家裏,把契據交給了他,並且把托彼特的兒子多俾亞娶妻,和請他參與婚禮的事,也報告了給他。他便起來,給他按原數數了幾個尚封着口的袋子,放在駱駝上, |
5So Raphael, together with the four servants and two camels, traveled to Rages in Media, where they stayed at Gabael's house. Raphael gave Gabael his bond and told him about Tobit's son Tobiah, and that he had married and was inviting him to the wedding celebration. Gabael promptly checked over the sealed moneybags, and they placed them on the camels. |
6清早一起動身,前來參與婚禮。當他們進到辣古耳家時,看見多俾亞正在坐席。多俾亞便跳起來,向他請安。加貝羅不禁哭起來了,祝福他說:「善良無比的人啊!你是善良無比和正義好施的人的兒子,願上主賜予你、你的妻子和你的岳父岳母天上的祝福!願天主受讚揚!因為我看見了肖似我表弟托彼特的多俾亞。」 |
6The following morning they got an early start and traveled to the wedding celebration. When they entered Raguel's house, they found Tobiah reclining at table. He sprang up and greeted Gabael, who wept and blessed him, exclaiming: "O noble and good child, son of a noble and good, upright and charitable man, may the Lord grant heavenly blessing to you and to your wife, and to your wife's father and mother. Blessed be God, because I have seen the very image of my cousin Tobit!" |
