Judith 6:3-5

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³ we the king’s^[a] servants will destroy them as one man. They cannot resist the might of our cavalry. ⁴ We will overwhelm them;^[b] their mountains will be drunk with their blood, and their fields will be full of their dead. Not even their footprints will survive our attack; they will utterly perish. So says King Nebuchadnezzar, lord of the whole earth. For he has spoken; none of his words shall be in vain.

⁵ “As for you, Achior, you Ammonite mercenary, you have said these words in a moment of perversity; you shall not see my face again from this day until I take revenge on this race that came out of Egypt.
