19But he went back once he reached the carved images at Gilgal. He said to Eglon,“I have a secret message for you, O king.” Eglon said,“Be quiet!” All his attendants left.
20When Ehud approached him, he was sitting in his well-ventilated upper room all by himself. Ehud said,“I have a message from God for you.” When Eglon rose up from his seat,
21Ehud reached with his left hand, pulled the sword from his right thigh, and drove it into Eglon’s belly.
22The handle went in after the blade, and the fat closed around the blade, for Ehud did not pull the sword out of his belly.
23As Ehud went out into the vestibule, he closed the doors of the upper room behind him and locked them.
