Judith 8:8-10

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁸ And she was greatly renowned among all, because she feared the Lord very much, neither was there any one that spoke an ill word of her.

⁹ When therefore she had heard that Ozias had promised that he would deliver up the city after the fifth day, she sent to the ancients Chabri and Charmi.

¹⁰ And they came to her, and she said to them: What is this word, by which Ozias hath consented to give up the city to the Assyrians, if within five days there come no aid to us?
