8For she put off the garment of her widowhood, for the exaltation of those that were oppressed in Israel, and anointed her face with oyntment, & bound her haire in a tyre, and tooke a linnen garment to deceiue him. 9Her sandals rauished his eyes, her beautie tooke his minde prisoner, and the fauchin passed through his necke. 10The Persians quaked at her boldnesse, and the Medes were daunted at her hardinesse. 11Then my afflicted shouted for ioy, and my weake ones cryed aloude; but they were astonished: these lifted vp their voices, but they were ouerthrowen. 12The sonnes of the damosels haue pierced them through, and wounded them as fugitiues children: they perished by the battell of the Lord.
