31
Now Susanna was a woman of great refinement and beautiful in appearance.
32
As she was veiled, the scoundrels ordered her to be unveiled, so that they might feast their eyes on her beauty.
33
Those who were with her and all who saw her were weeping.
34
Then the two elders stood up before the people and laid their hands on her head.
35
Through her tears she looked up toward Heaven, for her heart trusted in the Lord.
