    14The Israelites served Eglon, king of Moab, for eighteen years.

    15Then the Israelites cried out to the Lord, and He raised up for them a deliverer, Ehud son of Gera, a Benjamite, a left-handed man. The Israelites sent him to deliver their tribute to Eglon, king of Moab.

    16Now Ehud had made a double-edged sword about a cubit long, which he strapped to his right thigh under his clothing.

    17He presented the tribute to Eglon, king of Moab, who was a very fat man.

    18After Ehud had finished presenting the tribute, he dismissed the people who had carried it.

    19But he himself turned back at the carved images near Gilgal and said, 'I have a secret message for you, O king.' The king said, 'Silence!' And all his attendants left him.

    20Ehud then approached him while he was sitting alone in the upper room of his palace, a room designed to stay cool. Ehud said, 'I have a word from God for you.' As the king rose from his seat,

    21Ehud reached with his left hand, drew the sword from his right thigh, and drove it into the king's belly.

    22Even the handle went in after the blade, and the fat closed over it, for he did not pull the sword out of his belly. And the excrement came out.

    23Then Ehud went out onto the porch, closed the doors of the upper room behind him, and locked them.

    24After he was gone, the servants came and found the doors of the upper room locked. They said, 'He must be relieving himself in the cool inner room.'

    25They waited to the point of embarrassment, but he still did not open the doors of the room. So they took the key and unlocked them, and there was their master fallen to the ground, dead.
