Judith 9:6-8

Good News Translation

⁶ Whatever you want to be done is as good as done. You know in advance all that you will do and what decisions you will make. ⁷ Now the Assyrians are stronger than ever; they take pride in their cavalry and their infantry. They rely on their weapons, but they do not know that you, O Lord, are a warrior who ends war. The Lord is your name. ⁸ In your anger, use your power to shatter their mighty army. They plan to defile your Temple, where you are worshiped, and to hack off the corners of your altar with their swords.
