Translation commentary on Tobit 14:1

So ended Tobit’s song of praise: Notice that this sentence is verse 1 of chapter 14 in New Revised Standard Version. It logically belongs in chapter 13, where Good News Translation places it, and the Handbook recommends following Good News Translation. We could translate this as “Tobit finished praising God at this point.”
