es. Jdt 5:12 Then they cried unto their God, and he smote all the land of Egypt with incurable plagues: so the Egyptians cast them out of their sight. Jdt 5:13 And God dried the Red sea before them, Jdt 5:14 And brought them to mount Sina, and Cades-Barne, and cast forth all that dwelt in the wilderness. Jdt 5:15 So they dwelt in the land of the Amorites, and they destroyed by their strength all them of Esebon, and passing over Jordan they possessed all the hill country. Jdt 5:16 And they cast forth before them the Chanaanite, the Pherezite, the Jebusite, and the Sychemite, and all the Gergesites, and they dwelt in that country many days. Jdt 5:17 And whilst they sinned not before their God, they prospered, because the God that hateth iniquity was with them.

Jdt 5:23 For, say they, we will not be afraid of the face of the children of Israel: for, lo, it is a people that have no strength nor power for a strong battle Jdt 5:24 Now therefore, lord Holofernes, we will go up, and they shall be a prey to be devoured of all thine army. Jdt 6:1 And when the tumult of men that were about the council was ceased, Holofernes the chief captain of the army of Assur said unto Achior and all the Moabites before all the company of other nations, Jdt 6:2 And who art thou, Achior, and the hirelings of
