Judges 3:21-23
English Standard Version Anglicised
21 And Ehud reached with his left hand, took the sword from his right thigh, and thrust it into his belly. 22 And the hilt also went in after the blade, and the fat closed over the blade, for he did not pull the sword out of his belly; and the excrement came out. 23 Then Ehud went out into the porch[a] and closed the doors of the roof chamber behind him (A)and locked them.

21 Ehud reached with his left hand, drew the sword(A) from his right thigh and plunged it into the king’s belly. 22 Even the handle sank in after the blade, and his bowels discharged.
