Judges 3:20 Context
18And when he had made an end to offer the Present, he sent away the people that bare the Present. 19But hee himselfe turned againe from the quarries that were by Gilgal, and said, I haue a secret errand vnto thee, O king: who said, Keepe silence. And all that stood by him, went out from him. 20And Ehud came vnto him, and he was sitting in a Summer parlour, which hee had for himselfe alone: And Ehud said, I haue a message from God vnto thee. And he arose out of his seat. 21And Ehud put forth his left hand, and tooke the dagger from his right thigh, and thrust it into his belly. 22And the haft also went in after the blade: and the fatte closed vpon the blade, so that hee could not drawe the dagger out of his belly, and the dirt came out.
