Judges 3:15-17

International Standard Version

¹⁵ But when the Israelis cried out to the Lord, the Lord raised up Gera’s son Ehud, a left-handed descendant of Benjamin, as a deliverer for them. The Israelis paid tribute through him to king Eglon of Moab. ¹⁶ Ehud forged a double-edged sword that was one cubit^[a] long, tied it to his right thigh under his cloak, ¹⁷ and went to present the tribute to King Eglon of Moab. Now Eglon happened to be a very obese man.
