Susanna 15-17

Revised Standard Version

The Elders Attempt to Seduce Susanna

¹⁵ Once, while they were watching for an opportune day, she went in as before with only two maids, and wished to bathe in the garden, for it was very hot. ¹⁶ And no one was there except the two elders, who had hid themselves and were watching her. ¹⁷ She said to her maids, “Bring me oil and ointments, and shut the garden doors so that I may bathe.”
