Judith 7:4-6

New Catholic Bible

⁴ When the Israelites caught sight of this vast force, they were greatly terrified. “These men will now devour the whole country,” they said to one another. “Neither the high mountains nor the valleys nor the hills will ever be able to support their weight.” ⁵ Even so, they all took up their weapons, lit fires on their towers, and remained on guard throughout the night.

⁶ On the second day Holofernes led out all his cavalry in full view of the Israelites in Bethulia.
