Judges 3:13-15

International Children’s Bible

¹³ Eglon got the Ammonite people and the Amalekite people to join him. Then he attacked Israel and took Jericho, the city of palm trees. ¹⁴ The people of Israel were under the rule of Eglon king of Moab for 18 years.

¹⁵ So the people cried to the Lord. And he sent a man to save them. That man was Ehud, who was left-handed. Ehud was the son of Gera from the people of Benjamin. Israel sent Ehud to give Eglon king of Moab the payment he demanded.
