Judith 3:8

8 And from all the cities he took auxiliaries valiant men, and chosen for war.

Judith 3:8 In-Context

6 Come to us a peaceable lord, and use our service as it shall please thee.
7 Then he came down from the mountains with horsemen, in great power, and made himself master of every city, and all the inhabitants of the land.
8 And from all the cities he took auxiliaries valiant men, and chosen for war.
9 And so great a fear lay upon all those provinces, that the inhabitants of all the cities, both princes and nobles, as well as the people, went out to meet him at his coming.
10 And received him with garlands, and lights, and dances, and tumbrels, and flutes.
