Judith 12:2-4

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

² And Judith answered him and said: Now I cannot eat of these things which thou commandest to be given me, lest sin come upon me: but I will eat of the things which I have brought.

³ And Holofernes said to her: If these things which thou hast brought with thee fail thee, what shall we do for thee?

⁴ And Judith said: As thy soul liveth, my lord, thy handmaid shall not spend all these things till God do by my hand that which I have purposed. And his servants brought her into the tent which he had commanded.
