Judith 8:24 Context
22And the slaughter of our brethren, and the captiuitie of the countrey, and the desolation of our inheritance, will he turne vpon our heads among the Gentiles, wheresoeuer we shall bee in bondage, and we shall be an offence and a reproch to all them that possesse vs. 23For our seruitude shall not be directed to fauour: but the Lord our God shall turne it to dishonour. 24Now therefore, O brethren, let vs shew an example to our brethren, because their hearts depend vpon vs, and the Sanctuary, and the house, and the Altar rest vpon vs. 25Moreouer, let vs giue thankes to the Lord our God, which trieth vs, euen as he did our fathers. 26Remember what things he did to Abraham, and how he tried Isaac, and what happened to Iacob in Mesopotamia of Syria, when he kept the sheepe of Laban his mothers brother.
