    14The children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years.

    15But when the children of Israel cried to Yahweh, Yahweh raised them up a savior, Ehud the son of Gera, the Benjamite, a man left-handed. The children of Israel sent tribute by him to Eglon the king of Moab.

    16Ehud made him a sword which had two edges, a cubit in length; and he wore it under his clothing on his right thigh.

    17He offered the tribute to Eglon king of Moab: now Eglon was a very fat man.

    18When he had made an end of offering the tribute, he sent away the people who bore the tribute.

    19But he himself turned back from the quarries that were by Gilgal, and said, "I have a secret errand to you, king." The king said, "Keep silence!" All who stood by him went out from him.

    20Ehud came to him; and he was sitting by himself alone in the cool upper room. Ehud said, "I have a message from God to you." He arose out of his seat.

    21Ehud put forth his left hand, and took the sword from his right thigh, and thrust it into his body:

    22and the handle also went in after the blade; and the fat closed on the blade, for he didn't draw the sword out of his body; and it came out behind.

    23Then Ehud went forth into the porch, and shut the doors of the upper room on him, and locked them.

    24Now when he was gone out, his servants came; and they saw, and behold, the doors of the upper room were locked; and they said, "Surely he is covering his feet in the upper room."

    25They waited until they were ashamed; and behold, he didn't open the doors of the upper room: therefore they took the key, and opened [them], and behold, their lord was fallen down dead on the earth.
