Judith 10:19-21

Common English Bible

¹⁹ They were amazed by her beauty and admired the Israelites because of her. They said to each other, “Who will underestimate these people when they have such women? It wouldn’t be good to leave even one of their men alive, for they could beguile the whole world.”

²⁰ Then Holofernes’ bodyguards and his attendants went out and brought her into the tent. ²¹ Holofernes was relaxing on his bed under a canopy made from purple and gold cloth woven with emeralds and precious stones.
