Judith 16:4-6
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

4 He boasted that he would burn up my territory
    and kill my young men with the sword
and dash my infants to the ground
    and seize my children as plunder
    and take my virgins as spoil.(A)

5 “But the Lord Almighty has foiled them
    by the hand of a woman.[a](B)
6 For their mighty one did not fall by the hands of the young men,
    nor did the sons of the Titans strike him down,
    nor did tall giants set upon him,
but Judith daughter of Merari
    with the beauty of her countenance undid him.(C)
