Judges 3:20-25
20Then EhudH164 approached himH935H413 while heH1931 was sittingH3427 aloneH905 in the coolness ofH4747 his upper roomH5944. “I have a wordH1697 from GodH430 for youH413,” EhudH164 saidH559, and the king roseH6965 fromH5921 his seatH3678.
21And EhudH164 reachedH7971 with his leftH8040 handH3027, pulledH3947 the swordH2719 fromH5921 his rightH3225 thighH3409, and plungedH8628 it into Eglon’s bellyH990. 22EvenH1571 the handleH5325 sank inH935 afterH310 the bladeH3851, and Eglon’s fatH2459 closed inH5462 overH1157 itH3851, so thatH3588 Ehud did notH3808 withdrawH8025 the swordH2719 from his bellyH990. And Eglon’s bowelsH6574 emptiedH3318. 23Then EhudH164 went outH3318 through the porchH4528, closingH5462 and lockingH5274 the doorsH1817 of the upper roomH5944 behind himH1157.
24After EhudH1931 was goneH3318, Eglon’s servantsH5650 came inH935 and foundH2009 the doorsH1817 of the upper roomH5944 lockedH5274H389. “He must beH1931 relieving himselfH5526H7272 in the coolH4747 roomH2315,” they saidH559. 25So they waitedH2342 untilH5704 they became worriedH954 and sawH2009 that he had still notH369 openedH6605 the doorsH1817 of the upper roomH5944. Then they tookH3947 the keyH4668 and openedH6605 the doors—and thereH2009 was their lordH113 lyingH5307 deadH4191 on the floorH776.
