Judges 3:17-19

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁷ Ehud presented the tribute payment to Eglon king of Moab, who was a very fat man. ¹⁸ After Ehud had presented the tribute payment, he sent the men who had delivered the tribute on their way. ¹⁹ But after he himself had passed the carved images that were at Gilgal, Ehud turned back and told the king, “I have a secret for you, O king!”

The king said, “Quiet, everyone,” so all his attendants left the room.
