Judges 3:23-25
1599 Geneva Bible
23 Then Ehud got him out into the [a]porch, and shut the doors of the parlor upon him, and locked them.
24 And when he was gone out, his servants came: who seeing that the doors of the parlor were locked, they said, Surely [b]he doeth his easement in his summer chamber.
25 And they tarried till they were ashamed: and seeing he opened not the doors of the parlor, they took the key, and opened them, and behold, their lord was fallen dead on the earth.

23 Then Ehud went out to the porch[a]; he shut the doors of the upper room behind him and locked them.
24 After he had gone, the servants came and found the doors of the upper room locked. They said, “He must be relieving himself(A) in the inner room of the palace.” 25 They waited to the point of embarrassment,(B) but when he did not open the doors of the room, they took a key and unlocked them. There they saw their lord fallen to the floor, dead.
