Judith 8:33-35

Good News Translation

³³ Tonight, the three of you must stand guard at the gate so that my slave woman and I can leave the town. And before the day comes on which you have promised to surrender, the Lord will use me to rescue the people of Israel. ³⁴ But you must not ask me what I am going to do; I will explain it to you when it is all over.

³⁵ Uzziah and the other officials said to her,
    You have our blessing. May the Lord our God guide you as you take revenge on our enemies. Then they left Judith's rooftop shelter and returned to their posts.
