27 At the accusations of the old men, the servants felt very much ashamed, for never had any such thing been said about Susanna.
28 When the people came to her husband Joakim the next day, the two wicked old men also came, full of lawless intent to put Susanna to death.
29 Before the people they ordered: “Send for Susanna, the daughter of Hilkiah, the wife of Joakim.” When she was sent for,
30 she came with her parents, children and all her relatives.
31 Susanna, very delicate and beautiful,
32 was veiled; but those transgressors of the law ordered that she be exposed so as to sate themselves with her beauty.
33 All her companions and the onlookers were weeping.
