Uzziah tells her to go in peace (Jdt 8:35-8:36)

“Uzziah and the rulers said to her.

‘Go in peace!

May the Lord God go before you!

May he take revenge upon our enemies!’

So they returned from the tent and went to their posts.”

Uzziah simply told her to go in peace. He hoped that the Lord would be with her. He also added that he wanted God to take revenge against his enemies. With that simple farewell, they all returned to their tents and watch posts.
