TubiYahu (Tobit) — 13

Tubiyahu gives Tudah to YAHUAH

1 Then Tubiyahu wrote a prayer of rejoicing, and said: “Baraked is 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH who lives for ever, and baraked is 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH's kingdom.

2 For 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH afflicts, and 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH shows mercy; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH leads down to Hades, and He brings up again, for there is no one who can escape the hand of  𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH Tsaba'ut.

3 Acknowledge 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH before the nations, O sons of Yashar'AL; for  𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH has scattered us among them.

4 Make 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH greatness known there, and exalt 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH in the presence of all the living; because 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH is our 𐤀𐤋𐤅𐤄_ALUAH, and 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH is our ABBA for ever.

5 For 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH will afflict us for our iniquities; and again 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH will show mercy, and will gather us from all the nations among whom you have been scattered.

6 If you turn to 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH with all your heart and with all your soul, to do what is true before Him, then 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH will turn to you and will not hide His face from you, But see what He will do with you; give TUDAH to 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH with your full voice, Yadah 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH of righteousness, and exalt the Ruler of the ages, I give 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH TUDAH in the land of my captivity, and I show the power of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH and majesty to a nation of sinners, turn back, you sinners, and do right before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH; who knows if he will accept you and have mercy on you?

7 I exalt my 𐤀𐤋𐤅𐤄_ALUAH; my soul exalts the Ruler of Shamaym and will rejoice in 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH Majesty.

8 Let all men speak, and give 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH TUDAH in Yahushalam.

9 O Yahushalam, the Qadash city,  𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH will afflict you for the deeds of your sons, but again  𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH will show mercy to the sons of the righteous.

10 Give Tudah worthily to 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH, and Yadah the Ruler of the ages, that His tent may be raised for you again with joy. May 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH cheer those within you who are captives, and love those within you who are distressed, to all generations for ever.

11 Many nations will come from afar to the Name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH 𐤀𐤋𐤅𐤄_ALUAH,    bearing gifts in their hands, gifts for the Ruler of Shamaym, Generations of generations will give you joyful Yadah.

12 Cursed are all who hate you; baraked for ever will be all who love you.

13 Rejoice and be glad for the sons of the righteous; for they will be gathered together, and will Yadah the  𐤀𐤋𐤅𐤄_ALUAH of righteous.

14 How baraked are those who love you!    They will rejoice in your Shalum, Baraked are those who grieved over all your afflictions; for they will rejoice for you upon seeing all your Kabad, and they will be made glad for ever.

15 Let my soul sing Yadah to  𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH the great Ruler of all.

16 For Yahushalam will be built with sapphires and emeralds, her walls with precious stones, and her towers and battlements with pure gold.

17 The streets of Yahushalam will be paved with beryl and ruby and stones of Ophir;

18 all her lanes will cry ‘Hallalu'YAHUAH!’ and will give Yadah, saying, ‘Baraked is 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH who has exalted you for ever.’”
