Judith 12:5-7

Good News Translation

⁵ Then Holofernes' personal servants led Judith to a tent. She slept there until the time of the morning watch just before dawn, when she got up ⁶ and sent a message to Holofernes requesting permission to go out into the valley to pray. ⁷ Holofernes ordered his guards to let Judith leave the camp. So for three days Judith lived in the camp, and each night she would go out to the valley near Bethulia and bathe at the spring.
