Judith 16:18-23 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

18. The mountains will be moved from the foundations by the waters. The rocks, like wax, will liquefy before your face.

19. But those who fear you will be great with you, throughout all things.

20. Woe to the people that rises up against my people. For the Lord almighty will be vindicated against them; in the day of judgment, he will visit them.

21. For he will bestow fire and worms on their flesh, so that they may burn and have sensations without ceasing."

22. And it happened that, after these things, all the people came to Jerusalem after the victory, to adore the Lord. And as soon as they were purified, they all offered holocausts, and vows, and their promises.

23. Moreover, Judith offered all the implements of war from Holofernes, which the people gave to her, and the canopy that she had taken away from his chamber, as an anathema unto oblivion.
