07:003:017 And he brought the present unto Eglon king of Moab: and Eglon was a very fat man.
07:003:018 And when he had made an end to offer the present, he sent away the people that bare the present.
07:003:019 But he himself turned again from the quarries that were by Gilgal, and said, I have a secret errand unto thee, O king: who said, Keep silence. And all that stood by him went out from him.
07:003:020 And Ehud came unto him; and he was sitting in a summer parlour, which he had for himself alone. And Ehud said, I have a message from God unto thee. And he arose out of his seat.
07:003:021 And Ehud put forth his left hand, and took the dagger from his right thigh, and thrust it into his belly:
07:003:022 And the haft also went in after the blade; and the fat closed upon the blade, so that he could not draw the dagger out of his belly; and the dirt came out.
07:003:023 Then Ehud went forth through the porch, and shut the doors of the parlour upon him, and locked them.
07:003:024 When he was gone out, his servants came; and when they saw that, behold, the doors of the parlour were locked, they said, Surely he covereth his feet in his summer chamber.
07:003:025 And they tarried till they were ashamed: and, behold, he opened not the doors of the parlour; therefore they took a key, and opened them: and, behold, their lord was fallen down dead on the earth.
07:003:026 And Ehud escaped while they tarried, and passed beyond the quarries, and escaped unto Seirath.
