Judith 7:14

14 So they and their wives and their children shall be consumed with famine and, before the sword come against them, they shall be overthrown in the streets where they dwell.

Judith 7:14 In-Context

12 Remain in thy camp, and keep all the men of thine army, and let thy servants get into their hands the fountain of water which issueth forth from the foot of the mountain;
13 for all the inhabitants of Bethulia have their water from thence. So shall thirst kill them, and they shall give up their city; and we and our people shall go up to the tops of the mountains that are near, and will camp upon them to watch that none go out of the city.
14 So they and their wives and their children shall be consumed with famine and, before the sword come against them, they shall be overthrown in the streets where they dwell.
15 Thus shalt thou render them an evil reward, because they rebelled and met not thy person peaceably."
16 And these words pleased Holofernes and all his servants, and he appointed to do as they had spoken.
