And they came unto her, and she said unto them, Hear me now, O ye governors of the inhabitants of Bethulia: for your words that ye have spoken before the people this day are not right, touching this oath which ye made and pronounced between God and you, and have promised to deliver the city to our enemies, unless within these days the Lord turn to help you.
When they came to her, she said, Listen to me, you leaders of Bethulia; what you said to the people today is not right — this oath you swore, promising to surrender the city to our enemies unless the Lord turns to help us within these days.
