Context of Judges 3:29
27And it came to pass, when he had come, that he blew a trumpet in the mountain of Ephraim, and the children of Israel went down with him from the mount, and he before them. 28And he said to them, Follow me: for the LORD hath delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand. And they went down after him, and took the fords of Jordan toward Moab, and permitted not a man to pass over. And they slew of Moab at that time about ten thousand men, all stout, and all men of valour; and there escaped not a man. 30So Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel. And the land had rest eighty years. 31And after him was Shamgar the son of Anath, who slew of the Philistines six hundred men with an ox goad: and he also delivered Israel.
