Tobit 4:19
Thomson 1808
not in this edition
Brenton 1851
Bless the Lord thy God alway, and desire of him that thy ways may be directed, and that all thy paths and counsels may prosper: for every nation hath not counsel; but the Lord himself giveth all good things, and he humbleth whom he will, as he will; now therefore, my son, remember my commandments, neither let them be put out of thy mind.
Greek · Brenton
Καὶ ἐν παντὶ καιρῷ εὐλόγει Κύριον τὸν Θεὸν, καὶ παρʼ αὐτοῦ αἴτησον, ὅπως αἱ ὁδοί σου εὐθεῖαι γένωνται, καὶ πᾶσαι αἱ τρίβοι καὶ βουλαὶ σου εὐοδωθῶσι· διότι πᾶν ἔθνος οὐκ ἔχει βουλὴν, ἀλλʼ αὐτὸς ὁ Κύριος δίδωσι πάντα τὰ ἀγαθὰ, καὶ ὃν ἐὰν θέλῃ, ταπεινοῖ καθὼς βούλεται· καὶ νῦν, παιδίον, μνημόνευε τῶν ἐντολῶν μου, καὶ μὴ ἐξαλειφθήτωσαν ἐκ τῆς καρδίας σου.
