Judith 5:3-5
Good News Translation
3 and said to them,
You live in Canaan, so tell me about the people who live in these mountains. Which cities do they occupy? How large is their army? What is the source of their power and strength? Who is the king who leads their army? 4 Why have they alone, of all the people in the west, refused to come out and surrender to me?
The Speech of Achior
5 Then Achior, the leader of all the Ammonites, answered Holofernes,
Sir, if you will please be so kind as to listen to me, I will tell you the truth about these people who live in the mountains near your camp. I will not lie to you.
