Judith 8:19 Context
17Therefore let vs waite for saluation of him, and call vpon him to helpe vs, and he will heare our voyce if it please him. 18For there arose none in our age, neither is there any now in these daies, neither tribe, nor familie, nor people, nor city among vs, which worship gods made with hands, as hath bene aforetime. 19For the which cause our fathers were giuen to the sword, & for a spoile, and had a great fall before our enemies. 20But we know none other god: therefore we trust that he will not despise vs, nor any of our nation. 21For if we be taken so, all Iudea shall lie waste, and our Sanctuarie shal be spoiled, and he will require the prophanation thereof, at our mouth.
