Cumque ista custodia per dies viginti fuisset expleta, defecerunt cisternæ et collectiones aquarum omnibus habitantibus Bethuliam, ita ut non esset intra civitatem unde satiarentur vel una die, quoniam ad mensuram dabatur populis aqua quotidie.
And when they had kept this watch for full twenty days, the cisterns, and the reserve of waters failed among all the inhabitants of Bethulia, so that there was not within the city, enough to satisfy them, no not for one day, for water was daily given out to the people by measure.
Cumque isto custodia per dies viginti es exple, cisternas et collectiones de aquas defice ad omni habita Bethulea, ita ut non es intra civitate unde satia vel uno die, quia ad mensura aqua ad populos da quotidie.
