Again Israel did evil, and God gave Eglon, king of Moab,
power over Israel. Again the Israelites cried out to the LORD and
God gave them a deliverer named Ehud. Ehud made a dagger and hid it
under his clothes. He went to pay tribute to Eglon king of Moab, but
when the two were alone, Ehud took out his dagger and killed the evil
king. Eglon was so fat that Ehud's dagger was enclosed by
Eglon's fat. |
