1Then said Judith to them, Hear me now, my brothers, and take this head, and hang it upon the highest place of your walls.
2And so soon as the morning shall appear, and the sun shall come forth upon the earth, take you every one his weapons, and go forth every valiant man out of the city, and set you a captain over them, as though you would go down into the field toward the watch of the Assyrians; but go not down.
3Then they shall take their armour, and shall go into their camp, and raise up the captains of the army of Assur, and shall run to the tent of Holofernes, but shall not find him: then fear shall fall upon them, and they shall flee before your face.
4So you, and all that inhabit the coast of Yashar'el (Israel), shall pursue them, and overthrow them as they go.
