These things they said, crying out with a loud voice in the Jews' language, to the people of Jerusalem who were on the wall, with the purpose of troubling them and putting fear into them, so that they might take the town;

Τοτε εβοησαν Ιουδαιστι, μετα φωνης μεγαλης, προς τον λαον της Ιερουσαλημ τον επι του τειχους, δια να φοβισωσιν αυτους και να ταραξωσιν αυτους, οπως κυριευσωσι την πολιν·

Then they cried with a loud voice in the Jews’ speech unto the people of Jerusalem that were on the wall, to affright them, and to trouble them; that they might take the city.
