Judith 16:8-10

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁸ For their mighty one did not fall by young men, neither did the sons of Titan strike him, nor tall giants oppose themselves to him, but Judith the daughter of Merari weakened him with the beauty of her face.

⁹ For she put off her the garments of widowhood, and put on her the garments of joy, to give joy to the children of Israel.

¹⁰ She anointed her face with ointment, and bound up her locks with a crown, she took a new robe to deceive him.
