Tobit 3:3-5

New Catholic Bible

³ And now, O Lord, be mindful of me
    and look upon me with favor.
Do not punish me for my sins
    or for my unthinking offenses
    or those of my ancestors.
“They sinned against you
⁴ and did not obey your commandments.
Therefore, you have subjected us to pillage, captivity, and death,
    to become the talk, the laughingstock, and the object of scorn,
    of all the nations among which you have dispersed us.
⁵ “And your many judgments are true
    when you deal with me as my sins deserve
    and those of my ancestors.
For we have not kept your commandments,
    nor have we walked in truth in your sight.
