Tobit 3:11–15

Apocrypha of the Old TestamentOther versions

At the self-same time she stretched forth her hands towards the window and prayed, and said, Blessed art thou, O merciful God, and blessed is thy name for ever: and let all thy works bless thee for ever. And now unto thee my face and mine eyes I lift up: command that I be released from the earth, and that I no more hear reproaches. Thou knowest, Master, that I am pure from all uncleanness with man, and that I never polluted my name, nor the name of my father either, in the land of my captivity. I am the only daughter of my father, and he hath no other child to be his heir, nor has he kinsman near him, nor has he relation, that I should keep myself for a wife unto him. Seven husbands of mine are dead already; and why should it be mine to live on? And if it pleaseth thee not to slay me—O Lord, now hear my reproach.
