Judith 8:18-20

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁸ For we have not followed the sins of our fathers, who forsook their God, and worshipped strange gods.

¹⁹ For which crime they were given up to their enemies, to the sword, and to pillage, and to confusion: but we know no other God but him.

²⁰ Let us humbly wait for his consolation, and the Lord our God will require our blood of the afflictions of our enemies, and he will humble all the nations that shall rise up against us, and bring them to disgrace.
