Judith 13:20 Douay-Rheims

Because he hath so magnified thy name this day, that thy praise shall not depart out of the mouth of men who shall be mindful of the power of the Lord for ever, for that thou hast not spared thy life, by reason of the distress and tribulation of thy people, but hast prevented our ruin in the presence of our God.

George Leo Haydock

1774–1849 Catholic

Praise. Greek, “hope.” — For that. Greek, “and may God make these things turn to thy eternal exaltation, to regard thee for good; because thou hast not.” — Ruin. Greek adds, “walking aright in,” &c. (Haydock)
