Judith 16:8-10

New Catholic Bible

⁸     bound up her hair with a fillet,
    and donned a linen gown to beguile him.
⁹ Her sandal attracted his gaze,
    her beauty captivated his mind,
    and the sword cut through his neck.
¹⁰ “The Persians quaked at her audacity,
    the Medes cowered at her daring.
