Because they were elders of the people and judges, the assembly believed them and condemned her to death.^(A)

⁴² Then Susanna cried out with a loud voice and said, “O eternal God, you know what is secret and are aware of all things before they come to be;^{(B) 43} you know that these men have given false evidence against me. And now I am to die, though I have done none of the wicked things that they have charged against me!”
