"And when they saw her they were astonished, and admired her beauty exceedingly."
Judith 10:7

In context

5And she gave to her maid a bottle of wine to carry, and a vessel of oil, and parched corn, and dry figs, and bread and cheese, and went out.

6And when they came to the gate of the city, they found Ozias, and the ancients of the city waiting.

7And when they saw her they were astonished, and admired her beauty exceedingly.

8But they asked her no question, only they let her pass, saying: The God of our fathers give thee grace, and may he strengthen all the counsel of thy heart with his power, that Jerusalem may glory in thee, and thy name may be in the number of the holy and just.

9And they that were there said, all with one voice: So be it, so be it.
