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 a hot day.
16
No one was there except the two elders, who had hidden themselves and were watching her.
17
She said to her maids, "Bring me olive oil and ointments, and shut the garden doors so that I can bathe."
18
They did as she told them: they shut the doors of the garden and went out by the side doors to bring what they had been commanded; they did not see the elders, because they were hiding.
19
When the maids had gone out, the two elders got up and ran to her.
