07:003:008 Therefore the anger of the lord was hot against Israel, and he
           sold them into the hand of Chushanrishathaim king of
           Mesopotamia:  and the children of Israel served
           Chushanrishathaim eight years.

07:003:009 And when the children of Israel cried unto the lord, the lord
           raised up a deliverer to the children of Israel, who delivered
           them, even Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother.

07:003:010 And the Spirit of the lord came upon him, and he judged
           Israel, and went out to war:  and the lord delivered
           Chushanrishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand; and his
           hand prevailed against Chushanrishathaim.

07:003:011 And the land had rest forty years.  And Othniel the son of
           Kenaz died.

07:003:012 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the
           lord:  and the lord strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against
           Israel, because they had done evil in the sight of the lord.

07:003:013 And he gathered unto him the children of Ammon and Amalek, and
           went and smote Israel, and possessed the city of palm trees.

07:003:014 So the children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab
           eighteen years.

07:003:015 But when the children of Israel cried unto the lord, the lord
           raised them up a deliverer, Ehud the son of Gera, a Benjamite,
           a man lefthanded:  and by him the children of Israel sent a
           present unto Eglon the king of Moab.

07:003:016 But Ehud made him a dagger which had two edges, of a cubit
           length; and he did gird it under his raiment upon his right
           thigh.

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.
