6 and sent to Holofernes, saying, "Let my lord now command that thine handmaid may go forth unto prayer."

Judith 12:6 In-Context

4 Then said Judith unto him, "As thy soul liveth, my lord, thine handmaid shall not spend those things that I have before the Lord work by mine hand the things that He hath determined."

5 Then the servants of Holofernes brought her into the tent, and she slept till midnight. And she arose when it was toward the morning watch,

6 and sent to Holofernes, saying, "Let my lord now command that thine handmaid may go forth unto prayer."

7 Then Holofernes commanded his guard that they should not stay her. Thus she abode in the camp three days, and went out in the night into the valley of Bethulia, and washed herself in a fountain of water by the camp.

8 And when she came out, she besought the Lord God of Israel to direct her way for the raising up of the children of her people.
