Judges 3:23-25
21st Century King James Version
23 Then Ehud went forth through the porch and shut the doors of the parlor upon him, and locked them.
24 When he had gone out, his servants came; and when they saw that, behold, the doors of the parlor were locked, they said, “Surely he covereth his feet in his summer chamber.”
25 And they tarried till they were ashamed; and behold, he opened not the doors of the parlor. Therefore they took a key and opened them; and behold, their lord was fallen down dead on the earth.

New International Version
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.
