Judith 7:17 In-Context

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.

17 So the camp of the children of Ammon departed, and with them five thousand of the Assyrians; and they pitched camp in the valley, and took the waters and the fountains of the waters of the children of Israel.

18 Then the children of Esau went up with the children of Ammon and camped in the hill country opposite Dothan; and they sent some of them toward the south and toward the east opposite Ekrebel, which is near unto Chusi, that is upon the Brook Mochmur. And the rest of the army of the Assyrians camped in the plain and covered the face of the whole land, and their tents and baggage were set in order for a very great multitude.

19 Then the children of Israel cried unto the Lord their God, because their heart failed; for all their enemies had compassed them round about, and there was no way to escape out from among them.
