Judith 5:4

4 And why they above all that dwell in the east, have despised us, and have not come out to meet us, that they might receive us with peace?

Judith 5:4 In-Context

2 And he was transported with exceeding great fury and indignation, and he called all the princes of Moab and the leaders of Amman.

3 And he said to them: Tell me what is this people that besetteth the mountains: or what are their cities, and of what sort, and how great: also what is their power, or what is their multitude: or who is the king over their warfare:

4 And why they above all that dwell in the east, have despised us, and have not come out to meet us, that they might receive us with peace?

5 Then Achior captain of all the children of Ammon answering, said: If thou vouch safe, my lord, to hear, I will tell the truth in thy sight concerning this people, that dwelleth in the mountains, and there shall not a false word come out of my mouth.

6 This people is of the offspring of the Chaldeans.
