Judith Chapter 12

¹⁶ Now when Judith came in and sat down, Holofernes his heart was ravished with her, and his mind was moved, and he desired greatly her company; for he waited a time to deceive her, from the day that he had seen her.

¹⁷ Then said Holofernes unto her, Drink now, and be merry with us.

¹⁸ So Judith said, I will drink now, my lord, because my life is magnified in me this day more than all the days since I was born.

¹⁹ Then she took and ate and drank before him what her maid had prepared.
