Judith 16:20 In-Context

18 When they arrived at Jerusalem, they worshiped God. As soon as the people were purified, they offered their burnt offerings, their freewill offerings, and their gifts.
19 Judith also dedicated to God all the possessions of Holofernes, which the people had given her; and the canopy that she had taken for herself from his bedchamber she gave as a votive offering.
20 For three months the people continued feasting in Jerusalem before the sanctuary, and Judith remained with them.
21 After this they all returned home to their own inheritances. Judith went to Bethulia, and remained on her estate. For the rest of her life she was honored throughout the whole country.
22 Many desired to marry her, but she gave herself to no man all the days of her life after her husband Manasseh died and was gathered to his people.
