as

not known all the wars of Canaan;
And
these `
are '
the nations which Jehovah
left, to try
Israel by them, all
who
have
not known all the wars of Canaan;
Only that
the generations of the children
of Israel
might
know
, to teach them war, at
the
least
such
as
before
knew
nothing
thereof;
(
only for
the sake
of
the
generations of the sons
of Israel's
knowing
, to teach them war, only
those
who
formerly
have
not
known
them)

when
the children

unto the
LORD
, the
LORD
raised
them up
a deliverer
, Ehud the
son of Gera, a Benjamite ,
a man lefthanded:
and by
him
the children
of Israel sent
a present unto
Eglon the
king of Moab .
And
the sons
of Israel cry
unto Jehovah
, and

raiseth
to

, Ehud son of Gera, a Benjamite (
a man --
shut
of
his
right
hand),
and the sons
of Israel send
by
his
hand
a present to
Eglon king of Moab ;
But
Ehud made
him
a dagger
which
had
two
edges
, of
a cubit length ;
and he did
gird
it under his raiment
upon
his right thigh .
and
Ehud maketh
for
himself
a sword
, and
it
hath
two
mouths
(
a cubit `is'
its
length ),
and he girdeth
it under his long
robe
on
his right thigh ;
And he brought
the present unto
Eglon king of Moab :
and Eglon was
a very fat man.
and he bringeth
near
the present to
Eglon king of Moab ,
and Eglon `is'
a very fat man.
And when he had
made
an
end
to offer
the present, he sent
away the people that
bare
the present .
And it
cometh
to
pass,
when he hath
finished
to bring
near
the present, that
he sendeth
away the people bearing
the present ,
But
he himself turned again
from the quarries
that
were
by
Gilgal, and said
, I
have
a secret errand
unto thee, O king :
who
said
, Keep
silence.
And all
that
stood
by
him
went
out from him.
and
he himself hath
turned back
from the graven
images
which
`are'
at
Gilgal, and saith
, `
A secret word
I
have
unto thee, O king ;'
and
he
saith
, `Hush!'
and go
out from him do
all
those
standing
by
him
.
And Ehud came
unto him ;
and he was
sitting in a
summer
parlor,
which he had
for himself alone.
And Ehud said
, I
have
a message
from
God unto thee .
And he arose
out
of
his
seat.
And Ehud hath
come
unto him ,
and he is
sitting in the
upper
chamber
of
the
wall
which he hath
for himself ,
and Ehud saith
, `
A word
of
God I
have
unto thee ;'
and he riseth
from
off
the
throne;
And Ehud put
forth his left hand, and took
the dagger
from his right thigh, and thrust
it into his belly :
and Ehud putteth
forth his left hand, and taketh
the sword
from off
his right thigh, and striketh
it into his belly ;
And the haft also went
in after the blade ;
and the fat closed
upon
the blade, so
that he could
not draw
the dagger
out of his belly ;
and the
dirt
came
out.
and the haft also goeth
in after the blade ,
and the fat shutteth
on
the blade, that he hath
not drawn
the sword
out of his belly ,
and it
goeth
out at
the
fundament
.
Then
Ehud went
forth
through
the porch, and shut
the doors of the parlor
upon him, and locked
them.
And
Ehud goeth
out
at
the porch, and shutteth
the doors of the upper
chamber
upon him, and hath
bolted
`it';
When
he was
gone out, his servants came;
and when
they
saw
that
, behold
, the doors of the parlor
were
locked
, they said
, Surely
he covereth
his feet in his
summer
chamber.
and
he hath
gone out, and
his servants have
come
in,
and look
, and
lo
, the doors of the upper
chamber
are
bolted
, and
they say
, `
He is
only
covering
his feet in the
inner
chamber of
the
wall
. '
And they tarried
till they
were
ashamed:
and
, behold
, he opened
not the doors of the parlor;
therefore
they took
a
key, and opened
them:
and
, behold
, their lord was
fallen down
dead
on
the earth.
And they stay
till confounded
, and
lo
, he is
not opening
the doors of the upper
chamber,
and
they take
the
key, and open
, and
lo
, their lord is
fallen to
the earth --
dead
.
And Ehud escaped while
they
tarried
, and passed beyond
the quarries
, and escaped unto
Seirath.
And Ehud escaped during
their
tarrying
, and hath
passed by
the images
, and is
escaped to
Seirath.
And it came
to pass, when
he
was
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 .
And it cometh
to pass, in
his
coming
in
, that he bloweth
with
a trumpet in the hill-country
of Ephraim, and go
down with him do
the
sons
of
Israel
from the hill-country
, and he before them ;
And he said
unto them, Follow
after 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 suffered
not a man to pass over.
and he saith
unto them, `Pursue
after me ,
for Jehovah
hath given
your enemies ,
the Moabites ,
into your hand ;'
and they go
down after him, and capture
the passages
of the
Jordan towards
Moab, and have
not permitted
a man to pass over.
And they slew
of
Moab at that time about ten thousand men, all lusty
, and all
men
of valor;
and there
escaped
not a man .

Moab at that time ,
about ten thousand men, all robust
, and every
one
a
man
of valour,
and not a man hath
escaped,
So
Moab was
subdued
that day under the hand of Israel .
And the land had
rest
fourscore
years.
and
Moab is
humbled
in
that day under the hand of Israel ;
and the land resteth
eighty
years.
And after him was
Shamgar the
son of Anath, which
slew
of
the Philistines six hundred men with an ox goad :
and he also delivered
Israel.
And after him hath
been
Shamgar son of Anath, and
he
smiteth
the Philistines --
six hundred men --
with an ox -
goad ,
and he saveth
--
he
also --
Israel.
