Judith 2:21

In context

19Then he and his whole force set out on the march, to go ahead of King Nebuchadnezzar and blanket the entire face of the land toward the sunset with chariots and cavalry and their picked infantry. 20A great rabble went out along with them, like a locust swarm, like the sand of the ground: their multitude was beyond counting. 21Three days’ march out of Nineveh brought them onto the plain of Bectileth, and they pitched camp away from Bectileth, near the mountain that lies to the left of Upper Cilicia. 22Then he took his whole force — the infantry, the cavalry, and his chariots — and went on from there into the hill country. 23He cut Put and Lud to pieces and plundered all the sons of Rassis and the sons of Ishmael, who lived along the edge of the desert south of Cheleon.
