Judith 11:21

In context

19I will lead you through the middle of Judea until you come opposite Jerusalem, and I will set your seat in the middle of it. You will drive them like sheep with no shepherd, and not a dog will so much as growl at you with its tongue. All this was spoken to me according to my foreknowledge; it was reported to me, and I was sent to report it to you.” 20Her words pleased Holofernes and pleased all his attendants, and they marveled at her wisdom and said: 21“No woman like this exists between the two ends of the earth, so lovely of face and so wise in her words.” 22Then Holofernes told her: “God has done well to send you ahead of the people, to put force into our hands and ruin into those who made nothing of my lord. 23And now you are charming in your looks and good in your words. If you do as you have said, your God will be my god, and you will sit in the house of King Nebuchadnezzar and your name will be spoken over the whole earth.”
