55. And Daniel said, Right well have you lied against your own head; for even now the angel of God has received the sentence of God and shall cut you in two.

56. So he put him aside, and commanded to bring the other, and said to him, O you seed of Canaan, and not of Judah, beauty has deceived you, and lust has perverted your heart.

57. Thus have you⌃ dealt with the daughters of Israel, and they for fear companied with you: but the daughter of Judah would not abide your wickedness.

58. Now therefore tell me, Under what tree did you take them companying together? Who answered, Under a holm tree.

59. Then said Daniel to him, Right well have you also lied against your own head: for the angel of God waits with the sword to cut you in two, that he may destroy you.

60. With that all the assembly cried out with a loud voice, and blessed God, who saves them that hope in him.
