Judith 2:6-16

6 And thou shalt go against all the west country, because they disobeyed my commandment.
7 And thou shalt declare unto them that they prepare for me earth and water; for I will go forth in my wrath against them and will cover the whole face of the earth with the feet of mine army, and I will give them as a spoil unto them,
8 so that their slain shall fill their valleys and brooks, and the river shall be filled with their dead till it overflow.
9 And I will lead them captives to the utmost parts of all the earth.
10 Thou therefore shalt go forth and take beforehand for me all their borders; and if they will yield themselves unto thee, thou shalt reserve them for me till the day of their punishment.
11 But concerning those who rebel, let not thine eye spare them, but put them to the slaughter and despoil them wheresoever thou goest.
12 For as I live and by the power of my kingdom, whatsoever I have spoken, that will I do by mine hand.
13 And take thou heed that thou transgress none of the commandments of thy lord, but accomplish them fully as I have commanded thee, and defer not to do them."
14 Then Holofernes went forth from the presence of his lord, and called all the governors and captains and the officers of the army of Assyria;
15 and he mustered the chosen men for the battle, as his lord had commanded him, unto a hundred and twenty thousand and twelve thousand archers on horseback,
16 and he ranged them as a great army is ordered for the war.
