16:17. Let all thy creatures serve thee: because thou hast spoken, and they were made: thou didst send forth thy spirit, and they were created, and there is no one that can resist thy voice. 16:18. The mountains shall be moved from the foundations with the waters: the rocks shall melt as wax before thy face. 16:19. But they that fear thee, shall be great with thee in all things. 16:20. Woe be to the nation that riseth up against my people: for the Lord almighty will take revenge on them, in the day of judgment he will visit them. 16:21. For he will give fire, and worms into their flesh, that they may burn, and may feel for ever. 16:22. And it came to pass after these things, that all the people, after the victory, came to Jerusalem to adore the Lord: and as soon as they were purified, they all offered holocausts, and vows, and their promises. 16:23. And Judith offered for an anathema of oblivion all the arms of Holofernes, which the people gave her, and the canopy that she had taken away out of his chamber. An anathema of oblivion... That is, a gift or offering made to God, by way of an everlasting monument, to prevent the oblivion or forgetting so great a benefit. 16:24. And the people were joyful in the sight of the sanctuary, and for three months the joy of this victory was celebrated with Judith. 16:25. And after those days every man returned to his house, and Judith was made great in Bethulia, and she was most renowned in all the land of Israel. 16:26. And chastity was joined to her virtue, so that she knew no man all the days of her life, after the death of Manasses her husband. 16:27. And on festival days she came forth with great glory. 16:28. And she abode in her husband's house a hundred and five years, and made her handmaid free, and she died, and was buried with her husband in Bethulia. 16:29. And all the people mourned for seven days. 16:30. And all the time of her life there was none that troubled Israel, nor many years after her death. 16:31. But the day of the festivity of this victory is received by the Hebrews in the number of holy days, and is religiously observed by the Jews from that time until this day.
