Sus 1:49 Return to judgment, for they have borne false witness against her.

[✝ @avepublexa]

Truth. They had taken no precautions to ascertain it; which they ought to have done the more, as Susanna had always been highly esteemed. (Calmet) --- As the witnesses were positive, she must die, except their falsehood could be manifested, which none suspected. (Houbigant.)
