Judith 12:2-4

Good News Translation

I cannot eat your food, she said,
for I would be breaking the laws of my God. I will eat only what I have brought with me.

³ But what will you do when your food and wine are gone? Holofernes asked.
Where will we get more food for you? There are no Israelites here in our camp.

⁴ Sir, Judith answered,
as surely as you live, I have more than enough food to last until the Lord has used me to carry out his plan.
