Judith 7:14 Context
12Remaine in thy campe, and keepe all the men of thine army, and let thy seruants get into their hands the fountaine of water which issueth foorth of the foot of the mountaine. 13For all the inhabitants of Bethulia haue their water thence: so shall thirst kil them, & they shall giue vp their citie, and we and our people shal goe vp to the tops of the mountaines that are neere, and will campe vpon them, to watch that none goe out of the city. 14So they and their wiues, and their children shalbe consumed with famine, and before the sword come against them, they shall be ouerthrowen in the streets where they dwel. 15Thus shalt thou render them an euil reward: because they rebelled and met not thy person peaceably. 16And these words pleased Holofernes, and al his seruants, and he appointed to doe as they had spoken.
