Judith 13:1-2

Revised Standard Version

Judith Beheads Holofernes

13 When evening came, his slaves quickly withdrew, and Bago′as closed the tent from outside and shut out the attendants from his master’s presence; and they went to bed, for they all were weary because the banquet had lasted long. ² So Judith was left alone in the tent, with Holofer′nes stretched out on his bed, for he was overcome with wine.
