Judith 10:15-23

15 "Thou hast saved thy life in that thou hast hastened to come down to the presence of our lord. Now therefore come to his tent, and some of us shall conduct thee until they have delivered thee to his hands.
16 And when thou standest before him, be not afraid in thine heart, but show unto him according to thy word, and he will treat thee well."
17 Then they chose out of them a hundred men to accompany her and her maid, and they brought her to the tent of Holofernes.
18 Then was there a concourse throughout all the camp, for her coming was noised among the tents; and they came about her as she stood outside the tent of Holofernes till they told him of her.
19 And they wondered at her beauty, and admired the children of Israel because of her; and every one said to his neighbor, "Who would despise this people who have among them such women? Surely it is not good that one man of them be left who, being let go, might deceive the whole earth."
20 And those who lay near Holofernes went out, and all his servants, and they brought her into the tent.
21 Now Holofernes rested upon his bed under a canopy, which was woven with purple and gold and emeralds and precious stones.
22 So they told him of her, and he came out before his tent with silver lamps going before him.
23 And when Judith had come before him and his servants, they all marveled at the beauty of her countenance; and she fell down upon her face and did reverence unto him, and his servants took her up.
