Judges 3:15-18

15Then the people of Israel cried out to the Lord, and the Lord raised up for them a deliverer, Ehud, the son of Gera, the Benjaminite, a left-handed man. The people of Israel sent tribute by him to Eglon the king of Moab.

16And Ehud made for himself a sword with two edges, a cubit in length, and he bound it on his right thigh under his clothes.

17And he presented the tribute to Eglon king of Moab. Now Eglon was a very fat man.

18And when Ehud had finished presenting the tribute, he sent away the people who carried the tribute.
