5 As for you, Achior, you Ammonite mercenary, for saying these things in a moment of perversity, you will not see my face after today, until I have taken revenge on this people that came out of Egypt.
6 Then at my return, the sword of my army or the spear of my attendants will pierce your sides, and you will fall among their wounded.
7 My servants will now conduct you to the hill country, and leave you at one of the cities beside the passes.
8 You will not die until you are destroyed together with them.
9 If you still harbor the hope that they will not be taken, then there is no need for you to be downcast. I have spoken, and not one of my words will fail to be fulfilled.”
10 Then Holofernes ordered the servants who were standing by in his tent to seize Achior, conduct him to Bethulia, and hand him over to the Israelites.
11 So the servants seized him and took him out of the camp into the plain. From the plain they led him up into the hill country until they reached the springs below Bethulia.
