6 These people are descended from the Chaldeans.

Judith 5:6 In-Context

4 And why have they alone, of all who live in the west, refused to come out and meet me?"

5 Then Achior, the leader of all the Ammonites, said to him, "May my lord please listen to a report from the mouth of your servant, and I will tell you the truth about this people that lives in the mountain district near you. No falsehood shall come from your servant's mouth.

6 These people are descended from the Chaldeans.

7 At one time they lived in Mesopotamia, because they did not wish to follow the gods of their ancestors who were in Chaldea.

8 Since they had abandoned the ways of their ancestors, and worshiped the God of heaven, the God they had come to know, their ancestors drove them out from the presence of their gods. So they fled to Mesopotamia, and lived there for a long time.
