Judith 16:11-15 Good News Bible Catholic Edition (GNBDK)

11. Then our people shouted in victory.They had been weak and oppressed,but they forced the enemy to retreat in panic and fear.

12. We are descendants of slaves,but our enemies turned and ran;we killed them like runaway slaves.They were destroyed by the army of the Lord.

13. “I will sing a new song to my God.O Lord, you are strong and glorious!You have never been defeated.

14. Let all your creatures serve you.You gave the command,and all of them came into being;you breathed on them,and all of them were created.No one can oppose your command.

15. The mountains and the seas tremble,and rocks melt like wax when you come near.But there is mercy for all who obey you.
