21Ehud put forth his left hand, and took the sword from his right thigh, and thrust it into his body:
22and the haft also went in after the blade; and the fat closed on the blade, for he didn`t draw the sword out of his body; and it came out behind.
23Then Ehud went forth into the porch, and shut the doors of the upper room on him, and locked them.
24Now when he was gone out, his servants came; and they saw, and, behold, the doors of the upper room were locked; and they said, Surely he is covering his feet in the upper chamber.
25They waited until they were ashamed; and, behold, he didn`t open the doors of the upper room: therefore they took the key, and opened [them], and, behold, their lord was fallen down dead on the earth.
26Ehud escaped while they waited, and passed beyond the quarries, and escaped to Seirah.
27It happened, when he had come, that he blew a trumpet in the hill-country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel went down with him from the hill-country, and he before them.
