55 Daniel said, "Right! You lied! It’s on your own head! Already God’s angel has orders to cleave you down the middle!"
56 Then setting that one aside, he ordered them to bring in the other judge. He said to him, "You’re a Canaanite and not from Judah. Beauty seduced you, and sexual desire twisted your mind.
57 You treated women from Israel this way, and they had sex with you because they were afraid of you. But this woman from Judah wouldn’t tolerate your lawless immorality.
58 So tell me now: Under what tree did you catch them having sex with each other?" He said, "Under a yew."
59 Daniel said to him, "Right! You lied too! It’s on your own head. God’s angel waits with his sword to hew you down the middle, to destroy both of you."
60 Then the whole assembly started shouting out praises to the God who saves those who hope in him.
61 They rose up against the two elders, because Daniel had shown from their own words that they were false witnesses. They treated them in the same way that they had plotted to treat their neighbor.
