Tobit 2:3-5

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

³ So Tobias went to look for some poor person of our people. When he had returned he said, ‘Father!’ And I replied, ‘Here I am, my child.’ Then he went on to say, ‘Look, father, one of our own people has been murdered and thrown into the market-place, and now he lies there strangled.’ ⁴ Then I sprang up, left the dinner before even tasting it, and removed the body^[a] from the square^[b] and laid it^[c] in one of the rooms until sunset when I might bury it.^{[d] 5} When I returned, I washed myself and ate my food in sorrow.
