Judith 11:2-4

Wycliffe Bible

² And if thy people had not despised me, I had not raised mine hand or my power upon it.

³ But now say to me, for what cause wentest thou away from them, and why it pleased thee to come to us. [Now forsooth say to me, for what cause thou wentest away from them, and it pleased to thee that thou hast come to us.]

⁴ And Judith said, Take thou the words of thine handmaid; for, if thou (pur)suest the words of thine handmaid, the Lord shall make a perfect thing with thee. [And Judith said, Take the words of thine handmaiden; for, if thou followest the words of thine handmaiden, a perfect thing the Lord shall do with thee.]
