Blessed be God who lives forever,
because his kingdom lasts for all ages.
For he scourges and then has mercy,
he casts down into the depths of the nether world,
and he brings up from the great abyss.
No one can escape His hand.
. . . Bless the Lord of righteousness
and exalt the King of ages. Tobit 13
