Judith 8:18DRA

16And therefore let us humble our souls before him, and continuing in an humble spirit, in his service:

17Let us ask the Lord with tears, that according to his will so he would shew his mercy to us: that as our heart is troubled by their pride, so also we may glorify in our humility.

18For we have not followed the sins of our fathers, who forsook their God, and worshipped strange gods.

19For which crime they were given up to their enemies, to the sword, and to pillage, and to confusion: but we know no other God but him.

20Let us humbly wait for his consolation, and the Lord our God will require our blood of the afflictions of our enemies, and he will humble all the nations that shall rise up against us, and bring them to disgrace.
