''The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 18: Judith'' is a historical account likely written in the late 16th to early 17th century, reflecting the religious and cultural milieu of its time. This book is part of the canonical texts of the Bible, specifically within the Old Testament, and it tells the story of Judith, a Jewish heroine whose courage and faith lead to the salvation of her people from their enemies. The narrative centers around Judith, a widow renowned for her beauty and piety, living under the threat of the Assyrian general Holofernes. Faced with the siege of her city Bethulia, Judith boldly devises a plan to save her people. She infiltrates the enemy camp under the guise of surrendering, ultimately gaining Holofernes' trust. In a dramatic turn, Judith beheads him while he is intoxicated, leading to a panic among the Assyrian forces and triggering their retreat. The story concludes with Judith celebrated as a national heroine, affirming the significance of faith and divine intervention in the struggles of the Jewish people.

“Chapter 4 1 Moses answered, and said: They will not believe me, nor hear my voice, but they will say: The Lord hath not appeared to thee. 2 Then he said to him: What is that thou holdest in thy hand? He answered: A rod. 3 And the Lord said: Cast it down upon the ground. He cast it down, and it was turned into a serpent, so that Moses fled from it. 4 And the Lord said: Put out thy hand, and take it by the tail. He put forth his hand, and took hold of it, and it was turned into a rod. 5 That they may believe, saith he, that the Lord God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath appeared to thee. 6 And the Lord said again: Put thy hand into thy bosom. And when he had put it into his bosom, he brought it forth leprous as snow. 7 And he said: Put back thy hand into thy bosom. He put it back, and brought it out again, and it was like the other flesh. 8 If they will not believe thee, saith he, nor hear the voice of the former sign, they will believe the word of the latter sign. 9 But if they will not even believe these two signs, nor hear thy voice: take of the river water, and pour it out upon the dry land, and whatsoever thou drawest out of the river, shall be turned into blood. 10 Moses said: I beseech thee, Lord, I am not eloquent from yesterday and the day before; and since thou hast spoken to thy servant, I have more impediment and slowness of tongue. 11 The Lord said to him: Who made man’s mouth? or who made the dumb and the deaf, the seeing and the blind? did not I?””
