Judith 12:7-9

New Catholic Bible

⁷ Holofernes commanded his guards not to restrict her movements. She remained in the camp for three days, going out each night to the Valley of Bethulia and bathing in the spring of the camp. ⁸ After bathing, she would implore the Lord, the God of Israel, to guide her way toward the triumph of his people. ⁹ Then she would return, purified, to the camp and remain in the tent until she took her evening meal.
