Judith 7:5 Context
3And they camped in the valley neere vnto Bethulia, by the fountaine, and they spred themselues in breadth ouer Dothaim, euen to Belmaim, and in length from Bethulia vnto Cyamon which is ouer against Esdraelon. 4Now the children of Israel when they saw the multitude of them, were greatly troubled, and said euery one to his neighbour: Now will these men licke vp the face of the earth; for neither the high mountaines, nor the valleys, nor the hils, are able to beare their waight. 5Then euery man tooke vp his weapons of warre, and when they had kindled fires vpon their towers, they remained and watched all that night. 6But in the second day Holofernes brought foorth all his horsemen, in the sight of the children of Israel which were in Bethulia, 7And viewed the passages vp to the city, and came to the fountaine of their waters, and tooke them, and set garrisons of men of warre ouer them, and he himselfe remooued towards his people.
