Tobit 8:21
Good News Translation
Then you may take half of what I own and go back to your parents safe and sound. You will inherit the other half when Edna and I die. Have no doubts about our love for you; from now on you are as much our son as Sarah is our daughter. You can be sure of that, my son."

New Revised Standard Version
Take at once half of what I own and return in safety to your father; the other half will be yours when my wife and I die. Take courage, my child. I am your father and Edna is your mother, and we belong to you as well as to your wife now and forever. Take courage, my child.”

Contemporary English Version
When you leave, you can take half of everything I own and return safely to your father. Then, whenever my wife Edna and I die, you can have the other half as well. Don't worry about a thing, Tobias. From now on, you will be a son to us, and we will care for you as much as we do for our daughter Sarah, your wife.
