Judith 16:23-25

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²³ She became more and more famous, and grew old in her husband’s house, reaching the age of one hundred five. She set her maid free. She died in Bethulia, and they buried her in the cave of her husband Manasseh; ²⁴ and the house of Israel mourned her for seven days. Before she died she distributed her property to all those who were next of kin to her husband Manasseh, and to her own nearest kindred. ²⁵ No one ever again spread terror among the Israelites during the lifetime of Judith, or for a long time after her death.
