So Toviyah went out and called him and said: “Young ish, my father calls you.” And he entered. And Toviyt greeted him first. And Rafa’el said: “May abundant joy be yours.” But Toviyt answered: “What joy remains for me? I am an ish without sight. I do not see the light of the heavens, but I lie in darkness like the dead who no longer behold the light. Though I live, I am among the dead. I hear the voice of Adam, but I do not see them.” And Rafa’el said to him: “Take courage. Your healing from Elohim is near. Take courage.” Then Toviyt said to him: “My son Toviyah desires to go into Media. Can you go with him and guide him? I will pay you your wages, brother.” And he answered: “I can go with him. I know all the roads. I have often gone into Media, crossed all its plains, and I know its mountains and all its roads.”
