Tobit 13:6
Good News Translation
"Turn to him with all your heart and soul, live in loyal obedience to him. Then he will turn to you to help you and will no longer hide himself. Remember what God has done for you, and give thanks with all your heart. Praise the righteous Lord; honor the eternal King. "Although I live in exile in a foreign land, I will give thanks to the Lord and will speak of his great strength to a nation of sinners. 'Turn away from your sins, and do what pleases God! Perhaps he will be gracious and show you his mercy.'

New Revised Standard Version
If you turn to him with all your heart and with all your soul, to do what is true before him, then he will turn to you and will no longer hide his face from you. So now see what he has done for you; acknowledge him at the top of your voice. Bless the Lord of righteousness, and exalt the King of the ages. In the land of my exile I acknowledge him, and show his power and majesty to a nation of sinners: ‘Turn back, you sinners, and do what is right before him; perhaps he may look with favor upon you and show you mercy.’

Contemporary English Version
If you turn to God with all your heart and are faithful to him, he will turn to you once again; no longer will he refuse to help you. Shout praises to him, because he has been so kind and faithful to you, and he will rule as king forever! I must live far from my country, but I will still praise God and tell this nation of sinners how great and powerful he is. I will say, "Turn from your sins, and obey God. Who knows? Maybe God will be kind and have mercy on you."

New American Bible
When you turn back to him with all your heart, and with all your soul do what is right before him, Then he will turn to you, and will hide his face from you no longer. Now consider what he has done for you, and give thanks with full voice. Bless the Lord of righteousness, and exalt the King of the ages. In the land of my captivity I give thanks, and declare his power and majesty to a sinful nation. According to your heart do what is right before him: perhaps there will be pardon for you.
