Haydock's commentary
Sung. Greek, "Gave out this confession, in all Israel: and all the people echoed this praise;" (Haydock) either repeating the whole after her, or singing the first verse as a chorus, Exodus xv. 20., 1 Kings xviii. 6., and 1 Paralipomenon xvi. 8. (Calmet)
Saying. Greek, "And Judith said: Begin ye to my Lord." (Haydock)
It is time for us to break silence, and to sound forth the praises of God. (Calmet)
