Judith 11:15-17
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
15 On the very day when the response reaches them and they act upon it, they will be handed over to you for destruction.
16 “As soon as I, your servant, learned all this, I fled from them. God has sent me to perform with you such deeds as will astonish people throughout the whole earth who hear of them. 17 Your servant is, indeed, a God-fearing woman, serving the God of heaven night and day. Now I will remain with you, my lord; but each night your servant will go out into the valley and pray to God. He will tell me when they have committed their offenses.
