4And after that they were both shut in together, Tobias rose out of the bed, and said, Sister, arise, and let us pray that God would have pity on us. 5Then began Tobias to say, Blessed art thou, O God of our fathers, and blessed is thy holy and glorious name for ever; let the heavens bless thee, and all thy creatures. 6Thou madest Adam, and gavest him Eve his wife for an helper and stay: of them came mankind: thou hast said, It is not good that man should be alone; let us make unto him an aid like unto himself. 7And now, O Lord, I take not this my sister for lush but uprightly: therefore mercifully ordain that we may become aged together. 8And she said with him, Amen. 9So they slept both that night. And Raguel arose, and went and made a grave, 10Saying, I fear lest he also be dead.
