Judith 16:1-3

Common English Bible

Begin to praise my God with drums;
    sing to the Lord with cymbals.
Adapt a psalm for him;
    lift up your praise,
    and call upon his name.
² The Lord is a God who crushes wars.
    He rescued me
    from the hand of my oppressors,
    and brought me into his camp
    in the midst of his people.
³ The Assyrian came from the mountains in the north;
    he came with tens of thousands
    of his warriors;
    their crowd of people
    blocked the ravines,
    and their cavalry covered the hills.
