Judges 3:19-21

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁹ But when Ehud reached the stone idols at Gilgal, he turned round to go back to the king. He said to King Eglon, ‘I have a secret message for you, sir!’ So the king said, ‘Leave us alone.’ All his servants went out. ²⁰ The king was now sitting alone in his cool room on the roof of the palace. Ehud went near to the king and he said, ‘I have a message from God for you.’ The king started to get up from his chair. ²¹ Then Ehud used his left hand to take the sword from his right leg. He pushed it deep into the king's stomach.
