| 1 | Now there was a man that dwelt in Babylon, and his name was Joakim: | Et erat vir habitans in Babylone, et nomen eius Ioakim: | ΚΑΙ ἦν ἀνὴρ οἰκῶν ἐν Βαβυλῶνι, καὶ ὄνομα αὐτῷ Ἰωακείμ. |
| 2 | And he took a wife whose name was Susanna, the daughter of Helcias, a very beautiful woman, and one that feared God. | et accepit uxorem nomine Susannam, filiam Helciae, pulchram nimis, et timentem Deum: | Καὶ ἔλαβε γυναῖκα ᾗ ὄνομα Σωσάννα, θυγάτηρ Χελκείου, καλὴ σφόδρα, καὶ φοβουμένη τὸν Κύριον. |
| 3 | For her parents being just, had instructed their daughter according to the law of Moses. | parentes enim illius, cum essent iusti, erudierunt filiam suam secundum legem Moysi. | Καὶ οἱ γονεῖς αὐτῆς δίκαιοι, καὶ ἐδίδαξαν τὴν θυγατέρα αὐτῶν κατὰ τὸν νόμον Μωυσῆ. |
| 4 | Now Joakim was very rich, and had an orchard near his house: and the Jews resorted to him, because he was the most honourable of them all. | Erat autem Ioakim dives valde, et erat ei pomarium vicinum domui suae: et ad ipsum confluebant Iudaei, eo quod esset honorabilior omnium. | Καὶ ἦν Ἰωακεὶμ πλούσιος σφόδρα, καὶ ἦν αὐτῷ παράδεισος γειτνιῶν τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ· καὶ πρὸς αὐτὸν προσήγοντο οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι, διὰ τὸ εἶναι αὐτὸν ἐνδοξότερον πάντων. |
| 5 | And there were two of the ancients of the people appointed judges that year, of whom the Lord said: Iniquity came out from Babylon from the ancient judges, that seemed to govern the people. | Et constituti sunt de populo duo senes iudices in illo anno, de quibus locutus est Dominus: Quia egressa est iniquitas de Babylone a senioribus iudicibus, qui videbantur regere populum. | Καὶ ἀπεδείχθησαν δύο πρεσβύτεροι ἐκ τοῦ λαοῦ κριταὶ ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ ἐκείνῳ, περὶ ὧν ἐλάλησεν ὁ δεσπότης, ὅτι ἐξῆλθεν ἀνομία ἐκ Βαβυλῶνος ἐκ πρεσβυτέρων κριτῶν, οἳ ἐδόκουν κυβερνᾷν τὸν λαόν. |
| 6 | These men frequented the house of Joakim, and all that had any matters of judgment came to them. | Isti frequentabant domum Ioakim, et veniebant ad eos omnes qui habebant iudicia. | Οὗτοι προσεκαρτέρουν ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ Ἰωακεὶμ, καὶ ἤρχοντο πρὸς αὐτοὺς πάντες οἱ κρινόμενοι. |
| 7 | And when the people departed away at noon, Susanna went in, and walked in her husband’s orchard. | Cum autem populus revertisset per meridiem, ingrediebatur Susanna, et deambulabat in pomario viri sui. | Καὶ ἐγένετο ἡνίκα ἀπέτρεχεν ὁ λαὸς μέσον ἡμέρας, εἰσεπορεύετο Σωσάννα, καὶ περιεπάτει ἐν τῷ παραδείσῳ τοῦ ἀνδρὸς αὐτῆς. |
| 8 | And the old men saw her going in every day, and walking: and they were inflamed with lust towards her: | Et videbant eam senes quotidie ingredientem et deambulantem, et exarserunt in concupiscentiam eius: | Καὶ ἐθεώρουν αὐτὴν οἱ δύο πρεσβύτεροι καθʼ ἡμέραν εἰσπορευομένην, καὶ περιπατοῦσαν, καὶ ἐγένοντο ἐν ἐπιθυμίᾳ αὐτῆς, |
| 9 | And they perverted their own mind and turned away their eyes that they might not look unto heaven, nor remember just judgments. | et everterunt sensum suum, et declinaverunt oculos suos ut non viderent caelum, neque recordarentur iudiciorum iustorum. | καὶ διέστρεψαν τὸν ἑαυτῶν νοῦν, καὶ ἐξέκλιναν τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτῶν, τοῦ μὴ βλέπειν εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν, μηδὲ μνημονεύειν κριμάτων δικαίων. |
| 10 | So they were both wounded with the love of her, yet they did not make known their grief one to the other: | Erant ergo ambo vulnerati amore eius, nec indicaverunt sibi vicissim dolorem suum: | Καὶ ἦσαν ἀμφότεροι κατανενυγμένοι περὶ αὐτῆς, καὶ οὐκ ἀνήγγειλαν ἀλλήλοις τὴν ὀδύνην ἑαυτῶν· |
| 11 | For they were ashamed to declare to one another their lust, being desirous to have to do with her. | erubescebant enim indicare sibi concupiscentiam suam, volentes concumbere cum ea. | Ὅτι ᾐσχύνοντο ἀναγγεῖλαι τὴν ἐπιθυμίαν αὐτῶν, ὅτι ἤθελον συγγενέσθαι αὐτῇ. |
| 12 | And they watched carefully every day to see her. And one said to the other: | Et observabant quotidie sollicitius videre eam. Dixitque alter ad alterum: | Καὶ παρετηροῦσαν φιλοτίμως καθʼ ἡμέραν ὁρᾷν αὐτήν. |
| 13 | Let us now go home, for it is dinner time. So going out they departed one from another. | Eamus domum, quia hora prandii est. Et egressi, recesserunt a se. | Καὶ εἶπαν ἕτερος τῷ ἑτέρῳ, πορευθῶμεν δὴ εἰς οἶκον, ὅτι ἀρίστου ὥρα ἐστί. |
| 14 | And turning back again, they came both to the same place: and asking one another the cause, they acknowledged their lust; and then they agreed upon a time, when they might find her alone. | Cumque revertissent, venerunt in unum: et sciscitantes ab invicem causam, confessi sunt concupiscentiam suam: et tunc in communi statuerunt tempus quando eam possent invenire solam. | Καὶ ἐξελθόντες διεχωρίσθησαν ἀπʼ ἀλλήλων, καὶ ἀνακάμφαντες ἦλθον ἐπιτοαυτὸ, καὶ ἀνετάζοντες ἀλλήλους τὴν αἰτίαν, ὡμολόγησαν τὴν ἐπιθυμίαν αὐτῶν· καὶ τότε κοινῇ συνετάξαντο καιρὸν, ὅτε αὐτὴν δυνήσονται εὑρεῖν μόνην. |
| 15 | And it fell out, as they watched a fit day, she went in on a time, as yesterday and the day before, with two maids only, and was desirous to wash herself in the orchard: for it was hot weather. | Factum est autem, cum observarent diem aptum, ingressa est aliquando sicut heri et nudiustertius, cum duabus solis puellis, voluitque lavari in pomario: aestus quippe erat: | Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ παρατηρεῖν αὐτοὺς ἡμέραν εὔθετον, εἰσῆλθέ ποτε καθὼς χθὲς καὶ τρίτης ἡμέρας μετὰ δύο μόνων κορασίων, καὶ ἐπεθύμησε λούσασθαι ἐν τῷ παραδείσῳ, ὅτι καῦμα ἦν. |
| 16 | And there was nobody there, but the two old men that had hid themselves and were beholding her. | et non erat ibi quisquam, praeter duos senes absconditos, et contemplantes eam. | Καὶ οὐκ ἧν οὐδεὶς ἐκεῖ πλὴν οἱ δύο πρεσβύτεροι κεκρυμμένοι, καὶ παρατηροῦντες αὐτήν. |
| 17 | So she said to the maids: Bring me oil, and washing balls, and shut the doors of the orchard, that I may wash me. | Dixit ergo puellis: Afferte mihi oleum, et smigmata, et ostia pomarii claudite, ut laver. | Καὶ εἶπε τοῖς κορασίοις, ἐνέγκατε δή μοι ἔλαιον καὶ σμήγματα, καὶ τας θύρας τοῦ παραδείσου κλείσατε, ὅπως λούσωμαι. |
| 18 | And they did as she bade them: and they shut the doors of the orchard, and went out by a back door to fetch what she had commanded them, and they knew not that the elders were hid within. | Et fecerunt sicut praeceperat: clauseruntque ostia pomarii, et egressae sunt per posticum ut afferrent quae iusserat; nesciebantque senes intus esse absconditos. | Καὶ ἐποίησαν καθὼς εἶπε, καὶ ἀπέκλεισαν τὰς θύρας τοῦ παραδείσου, καὶ ἐξῆλθαν κατὰ τὰς πλαγίας θύρας, ἐνέγκαι τὰ προστεταγμένα αὐταῖς, καὶ οὐκ εἴδοσαν τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους ὅτι ἦσαν κεκρυμμένοι. |
| 19 | Now when the maids were gone forth, the two elders arose, and ran to her, and said: | Cum autem egressae essent puellae, surrexerunt duo senes, et accurrerunt ad eam, et dixerunt: | Καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἐξήλθοσαν τὰ κοράσια, καὶ ἀνέστησαν οἱ δύο πρεσβύται, καὶ ἐπέδραμον αὐτῇ, |
| 20 | Behold the doors of the orchard are shut, and nobody seeth us, and we are in love with thee: wherefore consent to us, and lie with us. | Ecce ostia pomarii clausa sunt, et nemo nos videt, et nos in concupiscentia tui sumus: quam ob rem assentire nobis, et commiscere nobiscum. | καὶ εἶπον, ἰδοὺ αἱ θύραι τοῦ παραδείσου κέκλεινται, καὶ οὐδεὶς θεωρεῖ ἡμᾶς, καὶ ἐν ἐπιθυμίᾳ σου ἐσμέν· διὸ συγκατάθου ἡμῖν, καὶ γενοῦ μεθʼ ἡμῶν. |
| 21 | But if thou wilt not, we will bear witness against thee, that a young man was with thee, and therefore thou didst send away thy maids from thee. | Quod si nolueris, dicemus contra te testimonium, quod fuerit tecum iuvenis, et ob hanc causam emiseris puellas a te. | Εἰ δὲ μὴ, καταμαρτυρήσομέν σου, ὅτι ἦν μετὰ σοῦ νεανίσκος, καὶ διὰ τοῦτο ἐξαπέστειλας τὰ κοράσια ἀπὸ σοῦ. |
| 22 | Susanna sighed, and said: I am straitened on every side: for if I do this thing, it is death to me: and if I do it not, I shall not escape your hands. | Ingemuit Susanna, et ait: Angustiae sunt mihi undique: si enim hoc egero, mors mihi est: si autem non egero, non effugiam manus vestras. | Καὶ ἀνεστέναξε Σωσάννα, καὶ εἶπε, στενά μοι πάντοθεν· ἐάν τε γὰρ τοῦτο πράξω, θάνατός μοι ἐστίν· ἐάν τε μὴ πράξω, οὐκ ἐκφεύξομαι τὰς χεῖρας ὑμῶν. |
| 23 | But it is better for me to fall into your hands without doing it, than to sin in the sight of the Lord. | Sed melius est mihi absque opere incidere in manus vestras, quam peccare in conspectu Domini. | Αἱρετώτερόν μοι ἐστὶ μὴ πράξασαν ἐμπεσεῖν εἰς τὰς χεῖρας ὑμῶν, ἢ ἁμαρτεῖν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου. |
| 24 | With that Susanna cried out with a loud voice: and the elders also cried out against her. | Et exclamavit voce magna Susanna: exclamaverunt autem et senes adversus eam. | Καὶ ἀνεβόησε φωνῇ μεγάλῃ Σωσάννα· ἐβόησαν δὲ καὶ οἱ δύο πρεσβύται κατέναντι αὐτῆς. |
| 25 | And one of them ran to the door of the orchard, and opened it. | Et cucurrit unus ad ostia pomarii, et aperuit. | Καὶ δραμων ὁ εἷς, ἤνοιξε τὰς θύρας τοῦ παραδείσου. |
| 26 | So when the servants of the house heard the cry in the orchard, they rushed in by the back door to see what was the matter. | Cum ergo audissent clamorem famuli domus in pomario, irruerunt per posticum ut viderent quidnam esset. | Ὡς δὲ ἤκουσαν τὴν κραυγὴν ἐν τῷ παραδεισῳ οἱ ἐκ τῆς οἰκίας, εἰσεπήδησαν διὰ τῆς πλαγίας θύρας ἰδεῖν τὸ συμβεβηκὸς αὐτῇ. |
| 27 | But after the old men had spoken, the servants were greatly ashamed: for never had there been any such word said of Susanna. And on the next day, | Postquam autem senes locuti sunt, erubuerunt servi vehementer, quia numquam dictus fuerat sermo huiuscemodi de Susanna. Et facta est dies crastina. | Ἡνίκα δὲ εἶπα οἱ πρεσβύται τοὺς λόγους αὐτῶν, κατῃσχύνθησαν οἱ δοῦλοι σφόδρα, ὅτι πώποτε οὐκ ἐῤῥήθη λόγος τοιοῦτος περὶ Σωσάννης. |
| 28 | When the people were come to Joakim her husband, the two elders also came full of wicked device against Susanna, to put her to death. | Cumque venisset populus ad Ioakim virum eius, venerunt et duo presbyteri, pleni iniqua cogitatione adversus Susannam ut interficerent eam. | Καὶ ἐγένετο τῇ ἐπαύριον, ὡς συνῆλθεν ὁ λαὸς πρὸς τὸν ἄνδρα αὐτῆς Ἰωακεὶμ, ἦλθον οἱ δύο πρεσβύται πλήρεις τῆς ἀνόμου ἐννοίας κατὰ Σωσάννης, τοῦ θανατῶσαι αὐτὴν, |
| 29 | And they said before the people: Send to Susanna daughter of Helcias the wife of Joakim. And presently they sent. | Et dixerunt coram populo: Mittite ad Susannam filiam Helciae uxorem Ioakim. Et statim miserunt. | καὶ εἶπαν ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ λαοῦ, ἀποστείλατε ἐπὶ Σωσάνναν θυγατέρα Χελκίου, ἥ ἐστι γυνὴ Ἰωακείμ· οἱ δὲ ἀπέστειλαν. |
| 30 | And she came with her parents, and children, and all her kindred. | Et venit cum parentibus, et filiis, et universis cognatis suis. | Καὶ ἦλθεν αὐτὴ, καὶ οἱ γονεῖς αὐτῆς, καὶ τὰ τέκνα αὐτῆς, καὶ πάντες οἱ συγγενεῖς αὐτῆς. |
| 31 | Now Susanna was exceeding delicate, and beautiful to behold. | Porro Susanna erat delicata nimis, et pulchra specie. | Ἡ δὲ Σωσάννα ἦν τρυφερὰ σφόδρα, καὶ καλὴ τῷ εἴδει. |
| 32 | But those wicked men commanded that her face should be uncovered, (for she was covered,) that so at least they might be satisfied with her beauty. | At iniqui illi iusserunt ut discooperiretur (erat enim cooperta), ut vel sic satiarentur decore eius. | Οἱ δὲ παράνομοι ἐκέλευσαν ἀποκαλυφθῆναι αὐτὴν, ἦν γὰρ κατακεκαλυμμένη, ὅπως ἐμπλησθῶσι τοῦ κάλλους αὐτῆς. |
| 33 | Therefore her friends and all her acquaintance wept. | Flebant igitur sui, et omnes qui noverant eam. | Ἔκλαιον δὲ οἱ παρʼ αὐτῆς, καὶ πάντες οἱ ἰδόντες αὐτήν. |
| 34 | But the two elders rising up in the midst of the people, laid their hands upon her head. | Consurgentes autem duo presbyteri in medio populi, posuerunt manus suas super caput eius. | Ἀναστάντες δὲ οἱ δύο πρεσβύται ἐν μέσῳ τῷ λαῷ, ἔθηκαν τὰς χεῖρας ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτῆς. |
| 35 | And she weeping looked up to heaven, for her heart had confidence in the Lord. | Quae flens suspexit ad caelum: erat enim cor eius fiduciam habens in Domino. | Ἡ δὲ κλαίουσα ἀνέβλεψεν εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν, ὅτι ἦν ἡ καρδία αὐτῆς πεποιθυῖα ἐπὶ Κυρίῳ. |
| 36 | And the elders said: As we walked in the orchard alone, this woman came in with two maids, and shut the doors of the orchard, and sent away the maids from her. | Et dixerunt presbyteri: Cum deambularemus in pomario soli, ingressa est haec cum duabus puellis: et clausit ostia pomarii, et dimisit a se puellas. | Εἶπον δὲ οἱ πρεσβύται, περιπατούντων ἡμῶν ἐν τῷ παραδείσῳ μόνων, εἰσῆλθεν αὕτη μετὰ δύο παιδισκῶν, καὶ ἀπέκλεισε τὰς θύρας τοῦ παραδείσου, καὶ ἀπέλυσε τὰς παιδίσκας. |
| 37 | Then a young man that was there hid came to her, and lay with her. | Venitque ad eam adolescens, qui erat absconditus, et concubuit cum ea. | Καὶ ἦλθε πρὸς αὐτὴν νεανίσκος ὃς ἦν κεκρυμμένος, καὶ ἀνέπεσε μετʼ αὐτῆς. |
| 38 | But we that were in a corner of the orchard, seeing this wickedness, ran up to them, and we saw them lie together. | Porro nos cum essemus in angulo pomarii, videntes iniquitatem, cucurrimus ad eos, et vidimus eos pariter commisceri. | Ἡμεῖς δὲ ὄντες ἐν τῇ γωνίᾳ τοῦ παραδείσου, ἰδόντες τὴν ἀνομίαν, ἐδράμομεν ἐπʼ αὐτούς. |
| 39 | And him indeed we could not take, because he was stronger than us, and opening the doors be leaped out: | Et illum quidem non quivimus comprehendere, quia fortior nobis erat, et apertis ostiis exilivit: | Καὶ ἰδόντες συγγινομένους αὐτοὺς, ἐκείνου μὲν οὐκ ἠδυνήθημεν ἐγκρατεῖς γενέσθαι, διὰ τὸ ἰσχύειν αὐτὸν ὑπὲρ ἡμᾶς, καὶ ἀνοίξαντα τὰς θύρας ἐκπεπηδηκέναι, |
| 40 | But having taken this woman, we asked who the young man was, but she would not tell us: of this thing we are witnesses. | hanc autem cum apprehendissemus, interrogavimus, quisnam esset adolescens, et noluit indicare nobis: huius rei testes sumus. | Ταύτης δὲ ἐπιλαβόμενοι, ἐπηρωτῶμεν, τίς ἦν ὁ νεανίσκος· καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησεν ἀγγεῖλαι ἡμῖν· ταῦτα μαρτυροῦμεν. |
| 41 | The multitude believed them as being the elders and the judges of the people, and they condemned her to death. | Credidit eis multitudo quasi senibus et iudicibus populi, et condemnaverunt eam ad mortem. | Καὶ ἐπίστευσεν αὐτοῖς ἡ συναγωγὴ ὡς πρεσβυτέροις τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ κριταῖς· καὶ κατέκριναν αὐτὴν ἀποθανεῖν. |
| 42 | Then Susanna cried out with a loud voice, and said: O eternal God, who knowest hidden things, who knowest all things before they come to pass, | Exclamavit autem voce magna Susanna, et dixit: Deus aeterne, qui absconditorum es cognitor, qui nosti omnia antequam fiant, | Ἀνεβόησε δὲ φωνῇ μεγάλῃ Σωσάννα, καὶ εἶπεν, ὁ Θεὸς ὁ αἰώνιος, ὁ τῶν κρυπτῶν γνώστης, ὁ εἰδὼς τὰ πάντα πρὶν γενέσεως αὐτῶν, |
| 43 | Thou knowest that they have borne false witness against me: and behold I must die, whereas I have done none of these things, which these men have maliciously forged against me. | tu scis quoniam falsum testimonium tulerunt contra me: et ecce morior, cum nihil horum fecerim, quae isti malitiose composuerunt adversum me. | σὺ ἐπίστασαι ὅτι ψευδῆ μου κατεμαρτύρησαν· καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀποθνήσκω μὴ ποιήσασα μηδὲν ὧν οὗτοι ἐπονηρεύσαντο κατʼ ἐμοῦ. |
| 44 | And the Lord heard her voice. | Exaudivit autem Dominus vocem eius. | Καὶ εἰσήκουσε Κύριος τῆς φωνῆς αὐτῆς. |
| 45 | And when she was led to be put to death, the Lord raised up the holy spirit of a young boy, whose name was Daniel. | Cumque duceretur ad mortem, suscitavit Dominus spiritum sanctum pueri iunioris, cuius nomen Daniel: | Καὶ ἀπαγομένης αὐτῆς ἀπολέσθαι, ὁ Θεὸς ἐξήγειρε τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον παιδαρίου νεωτέρου ᾧ ὄνομα Δανιήλ. |
| 46 | And he cried out with a loud voice I am clear from the blood of this woman. | et exclamavit voce magna: Mundus ego sum a sanguine huius. | Καὶ ἐβόησε φωνῇ μεγάλῃ, ἀθῶος ἐγὼ ἀπὸ τοῦ αἵματος ταύτης. |
| 47 | Then all the people turning themselves towards him, said: What meaneth this word that thou hast spoken? | Et conversus omnis populus ad eum, dixit: Quis est iste sermo, quem tu locutus es? | Ἐπέστρεψε δὲ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς πρὸς αὐτὸν, καὶ εἶπαν, τίς ὁ λόγος οὗτος, ὃν σὺ λελάληκας; |
| 48 | But he standing in the midst of them, said: Are ye so foolish, ye children of Israel, that without examination or knowledge of the truth, you have condemned a daughter of Israel? | Qui cum staret in medio eorum, ait: Sic fatui filii Israël, non iudicantes, neque quod verum est cognoscentes, condemnastis filiam Israël? | Ὁ δὲ στὰς ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν, εἶπεν, οὕτως μωροὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραήλ; οὐκ ἀνακρίναντες, οὐδὲ τὸ σαφὲς ἐπιγνόντες, κατεκρίνατε θυγατέρα Ἰσραήλ; |
| 49 | Return to judgment, for they have borne false witness against her. | revertimini ad iudicium, quia falsum testimonium locuti sunt adversus eam. | Ἀναστρέψατε εἰς τὸ κριτήριον, ψευδῆ γὰρ οὗτοι κατεμαρτύρησαν αὐτῆς. |
| 50 | So all the people turned again in haste, and the old men said to him: Come, and sit thou down among us, and shew it as: seeing God hath given thee the honour of old age. | Reversus est ergo populus cum festinatione, et dixerunt ei senes: Veni, et sede in medio nostrum, et indica nobis: quia tibi Deus dedit honorem senectutis. | Καὶ ἀνέστρεψε πᾶς ὁ λαὸς μετὰ σπουδῆς· καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι, δεῦρο κάθισον ἐν μέσῳ ἡμῶν, καὶ ἀνάγγειλον ἡμῖν, ὅτι σοὶ δέδωκεν ὁ Θεὸς τὸ πρεσβεῖον. |
| 51 | And Daniel said to the people: Separate these two far from one another, and I will examine them. | Et dixit ad eos Daniel: Separate illos ab invicem procul, et diiudicabo eos. | Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτοὺς Δανιὴλ, διαχωρίσατε αὐτοὺς ἀπʼ ἀλλήλων μακρὰν, καὶ ἀνακρινῶ αὐτούς. |
| 52 | So when they were put asunder one from the other, he called one of them, and said to him: O thou that art grown old in evil days, now are thy sins come out, which thou hast committed before: | Cum ergo divisi essent alter ab altero, vocavit unum de eis, et dixit ad eum: Inveterate dierum malorum, nunc venerunt peccata tua, quae operabaris prius: | Ὡς δὲ διεχωρίσθησαν εἷς ἀπὸ τοῦ ἑνὸς, ἐκάλεσε τὸν ἕνα αὐτῶν, καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτὸν, πεπαλαιωμένε ἡμερῶν κακῶν, νῦν ἥκασιν αἱ ἁμαρτίαι σου, ἃς ἐποίεις τὸ πρότερον, |
| 53 | In judging unjust judgments, oppressing the innocent, and letting the guilty to go free, whereas the Lord saith: I The innocent and the just thou shalt not kill. | iudicans iudicia iniusta, innocentes opprimens, et dimittens noxios, dicente Domino: Innocentem et iustum non interficies. | κρίνων κρίσεις ἀδίκους· καὶ τοὺς μὲν ἀθώους κατακρίνων, ἀπολύων δὲ τοὺς αἰτίους, λέγοντος τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἀθῶον καὶ δίκαιον οὐκ ἀποκτενεῖς. |
| 54 | Now then, if thou sawest her, tell me under what tree thou sawest them conversing together. He said: Under a mastic tree. | Nunc ergo, si vidisti eam, dic sub qua arbore videris eos colloquentes sibi. Qui ait: Sub schino. | Νῦν οὖν ταύτην εἴπερ εἶδες, εἰπὸν, ὑπὸ τί δένδρον εἶδες αὐτοὺς ὁμιλοῦντας ἀλλήλοις; ὁ δὲ εἶπεν, ὑπὸ σχῖνον. |
| 55 | And Daniel said: Well hast thou lied against thy own head: for behold the angel of God having received the sentence of him, shall cut thee in two. | Dixit autem Daniel: Recte mentitus es in caput tuum: ecce enim angelus Dei, accepta sententia ab eo, scindet te medium. | Εἶπε δὲ Δανιὴλ, ὀρθῶς ἔψευσαι εἰς τὴν σεαυτοῦ κεφαλήν· ἤδη γὰρ ἄγγελος φάσιν Θεοῦ λαβὼν παρὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ, σχίσει σε μέσον. |
| 56 | And having put him aside, he commanded that the other should come, and he said to him: O thou seed of Chanaan, and not of Juda, beauty hath deceived thee, and lust hath perverted thy heart: | Et, amoto eo, iussit venire alium, et dixit ei: Semen Chanaan, et non Iuda, species decepit te, et concupiscentia subvertit cor tuum: | Καὶ μεταστήσας αὐτὸν, ἐκέλευσε προσαγαγεῖν τὸν ἕτερον, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, σπέρμα Χαναὰν, καὶ οὐκ Ἰούδα, τὸ κάλλος ἐξηπάτησέ σε, καὶ ἐπιθυμία διέστρεψε τὴν καρδίαν σου. |
| 57 | Thus did you do to the daughters of Israel, and they for fear conversed with you: but a daughter of Juda would not abide your wickedness. | sic faciebatis filiabus Israël, et illae timentes loquebantur vobis: sed filia Iuda non sustinuit iniquitatem vestram. | Οὕτως ἑποιεῖτε θυγατράσιν Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἐκεῖναι φοβούμεναι ὡμίλουν ὑμῖν· ἀλλʼ οὐ θυγάτηρ Ἰούδα ὑπέμεινε τὴν ἀνομίαν ὑμῶν. |
| 58 | Now therefore tell me, under what tree didst thou take them conversing together. And he answered: Under a holm tree. | Nunc ergo, dic mihi sub qua arbore comprehenderis eos loquentes sibi. Qui ait: Sub prino. | Νῦν οὖν λέγε μοι, ὑπὸ τί δένδρον κατέλαβες αὐτοὺς ὁμιλοῦντας ἀλλήλοις; ὁ δὲ εἶπεν, ὑπὸ πρίνον. |
| 59 | And Daniel said to him: Well hast thou also lied against thy own head: for the angel of the Lord waiteth with a sword to cut thee in two, and to destroy you. | Dixit autem ei Daniel: Recte mentitus es et tu in caput tuum: manet enim angelus Domini, gladium habens, ut secet te medium, et interficiat vos. | Εἶπε δὲ αὐτῷ Δανιὴλ, ὀρθῶς ἔψευσαι καὶ σὺ εἰς τὴν σεαυτοῦ κεφαλὴν· μένει γὰρ ὁ ἄγγελος τοῦ Θεοῦ, τὴν ῥομφαίαν ἔχων πρίσαι σε μέσον, ὅπως ἐξολοθρεύσῃ ὑμᾶς. |
| 60 | With that all the assembly cried out with a loud voice, and they blessed God, who saveth them that trust in him. | Exclamavit itaque omnis coetus voce magna, et benedixerunt Deum, qui salvat sperantes in se. | Καὶ ἀνεβόησε πᾶσα ἡ συναγωγὴ φωνῇ μεγάλῃ, καὶ εὐλόγησαν τῷ Θεῷ τῷ σώζοντι τοὺς ἐλπίζοντας ἐπʼ αὐτόν. |
| 61 | And they rose up against the two elders, (for Daniel had convicted them of false witness by their own mouth,) and they did to them as they had maliciously dealt against their neighbour, | Et consurrexerunt adversus duos presbyteros (convicerat enim eos Daniel ex ore suo falsum dixisse testimonium), feceruntque eis sicut male egerant adversus proximum, | Καὶ ἀνέστησαν ἐπὶ τοὺς δύο πρεσβύτας, ὅτι συνέστησεν αὐτοὺς Δανιὴλ ἐκ τοῦ στόματος αὐτῶν ψευδομαρτυρήσαντας. |
| 62 | To fulfill the law of Moses: and they put them to death, and innocent blood was saved in that day. | ut facerent secundum legem Moysi. Et interfecerunt eos, et salvatus est sanguis innoxius in die illa. | Καὶ ἐποίησαν αὐτοῖς ὃν τρόπον ἐπονηρεύσαντο τῷ πλησίον· ποιῆσαι κατὰ τὸν νόμον Μωυσῆ· καὶ ἀπέκτειναν αὐτοὺς, καὶ ἐσώθη αἷμα ἀναίτιον ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ. |
| 63 | But Helcias and his wife praised God, for their daughter Susanna, with Joakim her husband, and all her kindred, because there was no dishonesty found in her. | Helcias autem et uxor eius laudaverunt Deum pro filia sua Susanna cum Ioakim marito eius, et cognatis omnibus, quia non esset inventa in ea res turpis. | Χελκίας δὲ καὶ ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ ᾔνεσαν περὶ τῆς θυγατρὸς αὐτῶν μετὰ Ἰωακεὶμ τοῦ ἀνδρὸς αὐτῆς καὶ τῶν συγγενῶν αὐτῶν, ὅτι οὐχ εὑρέθη ἐν αὐτῇ ἄσχημον πρᾶγμα. |
| 64 | And Daniel became great in the sight of the people from that day, and thenceforward. | Daniel autem factus est magnus in conspectu populi a die illa, et deinceps. | Καὶ Δανιὴλ ἐγένετο μέγας ἐνώπιον τοῦ λαοῦ ἀπὸ τῆς ἡμέρας ἐκείνης, καὶ ἐπέκεινα. |
| 65 | And king Astyages was gathered to his fathers, and Cyrus the Persian received his kingdom. | Et rex Astyages appositus est ad patres suos, et suscepit Cyrus Perses regnum eius. | — |
