Judith 2:26-28

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁶ He surrounded all the Mid′ianites, and burned their tents and plundered their sheepfolds. ²⁷ Then he went down into the plain of Damas′cus during the wheat harvest, and burned all their fields and destroyed their flocks and herds and sacked their cities and ravaged their lands and put to death all their young men with the edge of the sword.

²⁸ So fear and terror of him fell upon all the people who lived along the seacoast, at Sidon and Tyre, and those who lived in Sur and Oci′na and all who lived in Jam′nia. Those who lived in Azo′tus and As′calon feared him exceedingly.
