So
when the servants of the house heard the cry in the garden, they
rushed in at the privy door, to see what was done unto her.
But
when the elders had declared their matter, the servants were greatly
ashamed: for there was never such a report made of
Susanna.

when the people were assembled to her husband Joacim, the two elders came also full of
mischievous imagination against
Susanna to put her to death;

when they were gone forth, the king set meats before
Bel. Now Daniel had commanded his servants to bring ashes, and those they
strewed throughout all the temple in the presence of the king alone: then went they out, and shut the door, and sealed it with the king’s
signet, and so departed.
When they of Babylon heard that, they took great
indignation, and
conspired against the king, saying, The king is become a
Jew, and he hath destroyed
Bel, he hath slain the
dragon, and put the priests to death.

sore, being
constrained, he delivered Daniel unto them:

massacre, and spoken very proudly.
And spake peaceable words unto them, but all was
deceit: for
when they had given him
credence, he fell suddenly upon the city, and
smote it very
sore, and destroyed much people of Israel.
And when he had taken the spoils of the city, he set it on fire, and pulled down the houses and walls thereof on every side.
They stored it also with armour and
victuals, and

And when many of Israel came unto them, Mattathias also and his sons came together.
Now when he had left speaking these words, there came one of the Jews in the sight of all to sacrifice on the altar which was at Modin, according to the king’s commandment.

when Mattathias saw, he was inflamed with zeal, and his
reins trembled, neither could he
forbear to
shew his anger according to judgment: wherefore he ran, and
slew him upon the altar.
Now when it was told the king’s servants, and the host that was at Jerusalem, in the city of David, that certain men, who had broken the king’s commandment, were gone down into the secret places in the wilderness,

hereof, they
mourned for them right
sore.

indignation:

brook, if he pass over first unto us, we shall not be able to
withstand him; for he will
