Judith 10:14-17 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

14. And when the men had heard her words, they beheld her face, and their eyes were astounded, because they wondered exceedingly at her beauty.

15. And they said to her: "You have preserved your life by following such an excellent plan, to descend to our lord.

16. But know this, that when you will stand in his sight, he will treat you well, and you will be very pleasing to his heart." And they led her to the tabernacle of Holofernes, announcing her.

17. And when she had entered before his face, immediately Holofernes was captivated by his eyes.
