Tobit’s Thanksgiving to God

13 Then Tobit[a] said:

‘Blessed be God who lives for ever,
    because his kingdom[b] lasts throughout all ages.
For he afflicts, and he shows mercy;
    he leads down to Hades in the lowest regions of the earth,
    and he brings up from the great abyss,[c]
    and there is nothing that can escape his hand.
