Judith 4:9-11

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁹ And every man of Israel cried out to God with great fervour, and they humbled themselves with much fasting. ¹⁰ They and their wives and their children and their cattle and every resident alien and hired labourer and purchased slave—they all put sackcloth around their waists. ¹¹ And all the Israelite men, women, and children living at Jerusalem prostrated themselves before the temple and put ashes on their heads and spread out their sackcloth before the Lord.
