young man was,
but she would not tell us: these things do we testify.

Sus 1:41
Then the assembly believed them as those that were the elders
and judges of the people: so they condemned her to death.

Sus 1:42
Then Susanna cried out with a loud voice, and said, O
everlasting God, that knowest the secrets, and knowest all
things before they be:

Sus 1:43
Thou knowest that they have borne false witness against me,
and, behold, I must die; whereas I never did such things as
these men have maliciously invented against me.

Sus 1:44
And the Lord heard her voice.

Sus 1:45
Therefore when she was led to be put to death, the Lord
raised up the holy spirit of a young youth whose name was
Daniel:

Sus 1:46
Who cried with a loud voice, I am clear from the blood of
this woman.

Sus 1:47
Then all the people turned them toward him, and said, What
mean these words that thou hast spoken?

Sus 1:48
So he standing in the midst of them said, Are ye such fools,
ye sons of Israel, that without examination or knowledge of the
truth ye have condemned a daughter of Israel?

Sus 1:49
Return again to the place of judgment: for they have borne
false witness against her.

Sus 1:50
Wherefore all the people turned again in haste, and the
elders said unto him, Come, sit down among us, and shew it us,
seeing God hath given thee the honour of an elder.

Sus 1:51
Then said Daniel unto them, Put these two aside one far from
another, and I will examine them.

Sus 1:52
So when they were put asunder one from another, he called one
of them, and said unto him, O thou that art waxen old in
wickedness, now thy sins which thou hast committed aforetime are
come to light.

Sus 1:53
For thou hast pronounced false judgment and hast condemned
the innocent and hast let the guilty go free; albeit the Lord
saith, The innocent and righteous shalt thou not slay.

Sus 1:54
Now then, if thou hast seen her, tell me, Under what tree
sawest thou them companying together? Who answered, Under a
mastick tree.

Sus 1:55
And Daniel said, Very well; thou hast lied against thine own
head; for even now the angel of God hath received the sentence
of God to cut thee in two.

Sus 1:56
So he put him aside, and commanded to bring the other, and
said unto him, O thou seed of Chanaan, and not of Juda, beauty
hath deceived thee, and lust hath perverted thine heart.

Sus 1:57
Thus have ye dealt with the daughters of Israel, and they for
fear companied
