Judith 3:5-7

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁵ The men came to Holofer′nes and told him all this. ⁶ Then he went down to the seacoast with his army and stationed garrisons in the hilltop cities and took picked men from them as his allies. ⁷ And these people and all in the country round about welcomed him with garlands and dances and tambourines.
