The Holy Scripture
Tobit
Chapter XIII
Then Tobit wrote a prayer of rejoicing, and said, Blessed be God that liveth for ever, and blessed be his kingdom.
καὶ Τωβιτ ἔγραψεν προσευχὴν εἰς ἀγαλλίασιν καὶ εἶπεν
For he doth scourge, and hath mercy: he leadeth down to hell, and bringeth up again: neither is there any that can avoid his hand.
εὐλογητὸς ὁ θεὸς ὁ ζῶν εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας καὶ ἡ βασιλεία αὐτοῦ ὅτι αὐτὸς μαστιγοῖ καὶ ἐλεᾷ κατάγει εἰς ᾅδην καὶ ἀνάγει καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ὃς ἐκφεύξεται τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ
