| 1我心中悲伤至极，痛哭流泪，开始呻吟祈求道： | 1Then Tobias sighed, and began to pray with tears, |
| 2「上主！你是公义的，你的一切作为都公正，你的一切措施都慈爱忠诚，你审判万世。 | 2Saying: Thou art just, O Lord, and all thy judgments are just, and all thy ways mercy, and truth, and judgment: |
| 3上主！现在求你顾念我，看护我，不要因我和我的祖先在你面前所犯的罪恶和愚昧而惩罚我。 | 3And now, O Lord, think of me, and take not revenge of my sins, neither remember my offenses, nor those of my parents. |
| 4因为他们没有遵守你的诫命，所以你使我们遭遇劫掠、俘掳、死亡，使我们流亡到一切外邦人中，受他们的讽刺、嘲笑、诅咒。 | 4For we have not obeyed thy commandments, therefore are we delivered to spoil and to captivity, and death, and are made a fable, and a reproach to all nations, amongst which thou hast scattered us. |
| 5如今，你因我和我祖先的罪行而加给我的种种刑罚，都是针对事实的，因为我们没有遵守你的诫命，在你面前没有忠诚行事。 | 5And now, O Lord, great are thy judgments, because we have not done according to thy precepts, and have not walked sincerely before thee: |
| 6如今，请你按你的圣意对待我罢！请你收去我的灵魂，使我从地面上消逝，化为灰土，因为死比生为我更好！因为我听见了虚伪的辱骂，我心中很是忧伤。上主！请你救我脱离这种苦难，领我进入永远的安所罢！上主！求你不要转面不顾我，因为死了比活着看见这许多苦难，为我更好。这样，我再也听不见辱骂之声了！」 | 6And now, O Lord, do with me according to thy will, and command my spirit to be received in peace: for it is better for me to die, than to live. |
| 7同日，在玛待厄克巴塔纳城里，辣古耳的女儿撒辣听到了她父亲的一个使女的辱骂， | 7Now it happened on the same day, that Sara daughter of Raguel, in Rages a city of the Medes, received a reproach from one of her father's servant maids, |
| 8因为她已嫁过七个丈夫，而恶魔阿斯摩太在他们按礼俗与她合房以前，就一一杀死了。使女对她说：「是你杀了你的丈夫，你已嫁过七个丈夫，但是你连他们中的一个姓氏都没有得到。 | 8Because she had been given to seven husbands, and a devil named Asmodeus had killed them, at their first going in unto her. |
| 9你为什么因为你丈夫死了，就责打我们呢！你也跟他们去罢！巴不得我们永远见不到你有子女！」 | 9So when she reproved the maid for her fault, she answered her, saying: May we never see son, or daughter of thee upon the earth, thou murderer of thy husbands. |
| 10当日她心中十分忧伤，流泪痛苦，便走上她父亲的楼台，想要悬梁自尽。但她转念一想，说道：「决不能让人讥讽我的父亲说：你只有一个爱女，但是她为了许多苦难而自缢了；这样，我必使我老年的父亲悲惨地进入阴间了！还是苦求上主使我死去，总比我自缢为我更好；这样，我一生再也听不到辱骂了。」 | 10Wilt thou kill me also, as thou hast already killed seven husbands? At these words she went into an upper chamber of her house: and for three days and three nights did neither eat nor drink: |
| 11那时，她便向窗户伸手祈祷说：「慈悲的天主！你是可颂扬的，你的圣名是永可赞颂的，愿你的一切造物永远赞颂你！ | 11But continuing in prayer with tears besought God, that he would deliver her from this reproach. |
| 12现在，我向你仰面举目， | 12And it came to pass on the third day, when she was making an end of her prayer, blessing the Lord, |
| 13请你发言，命我脱离现世，使我再听不到辱骂之声罢！ | 13She said: Blessed is thy name, O God of our fathers: who when thou hast been angry, wilt shew mercy, and in the time of tribulation forgivest the sins of them that call upon thee. |
| 14主你知道，我是清白的，我从没有受到男子的玷污。 | 14To thee, O Lord, I turn my face, to thee I direct my eyes. |
| 15我在流徙之地，从没有玷污过我的名和我父亲的名。我是我父亲的独生女，他没有别的儿子来继承，他也没有近支的兄弟或近亲，可以让我嫁给他为妻。我的七个丈夫业已死去，我为什么还活着呢？假使你不愿叫我死去，那么，上主！请你垂顾可怜我，使我再不听见辱骂罢！」 | 15I beg, O Lord, that thou loose me from the bond of this reproach, or else take me away from the earth. |
| 16那时，二人的祈祷，在荣耀的天主前都获得垂允。 | 16Thou knowest, O Lord, that I never coveted a husband, and have kept my soul clean from all lust. |
| 17所以天主打发辣法耳来医治他们二人：给托彼特除去了他眼中的白膜，使他再亲眼见到天主的光芒；将辣古耳的女儿撒辣嫁给托彼特的儿子多俾亚为妻，把恶魔阿斯摩太从她身上赶出去，因为多俾亚比那一切愿意娶她的人，更有权利占有她。那时，托彼特正从庭院回到屋里，而辣古耳的女儿撒辣也正从楼台上下来。 | 17Never have I joined myself with them that play: neither have I made myself partaker with them that walk in lightness. |
| 18 | 18But a husband I consented to take, with thy fear, not with my lust. |
| 19 | 19And either I was unworthy of them, or they perhaps were not worthy of me: because perhaps thou hast kept me for another man. |
| 20 | 20For thy counsel is not in man's power. |
| 21 | 21But this every one is sure of that worshippeth thee, that his life, if it be under trial, shall be crowned: and if it be under tribulation, it shall be delivered: and if it be under correction, it shall be allowed to come to thy mercy. |
| 22 | 22For thou art not delighted in our being lost: because after a storm thou makest a calm, and after tears and weeping thou pourest in joyfulness. |
| 23 | 23Be thy name, O God of Israel, blessed for ever. |
| 24 | 24At that time the prayers of them both were heard in the sight of the glory of the most high God: |
| 25 | 25And the holy angel of the Lord, Raphael was sent to heal them both, whose prayers at one time were rehearsed in the sight of the Lord. |
