Daniel 13:28-32 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

28. when the people came to Joakim her husband, that the two appointed elders also came, full of wicked plans against Susanna, in order to put her to death.

29. And they said before the people, "Send for Susanna, daughter of Hilkiah, the wife of Joakim." And immediately they sent for her.

30. And she arrived with her parents, and sons, and all her relatives.

31. Moreover, Susanna was exceedingly delicate and beautiful in appearance.

32. But those wicked ones commanded that her face should be uncovered, (for she was covered,) so that at least they might be satisfied with her beauty.
