Judith 5:22-24

Revised Standard Version

²² When Ach′ior had finished saying this, all the men standing around the tent began to complain; Holofer′nes’ officers and all the men from the seacoast and from Moab insisted that he must be put to death. ²³ “For,” they said, “we will not be afraid of the Israelites; they are a people with no strength or power for making war. ²⁴ Therefore let us go up, Lord Holofer′nes, and they will be devoured by your vast army.”
