07:003:023 Then Ehud went forth through the porch,
and shut the doors of
the
parlour upon him, and locked them.
07:003:024 When he was gone out, his servants came;
and when they saw
that,
behold, the doors of the parlour were locked, they
said,
Surely
he covereth his feet in his summer chamber.
07:003:025 And they tarried till they were ashamed:
and, behold, he
opened
not the doors of the parlour; therefore they took a
key,
and opened them: and, behold, their lord was fallen
down
dead
on the earth.
07:003:026 And Ehud escaped while they tarried, and
passed beyond the
quarries,
and escaped unto Seirath.
07:003:027 And it came to pass, when he was come,
that he blew a trumpet
in
the mountain of Ephraim, and the children of Israel
went
down
with him from the mount, and he before them.
07:003:028 And he said unto them, Follow after me:
for the lord hath
delivered
your enemies the Moabites into your hand. And
they
went
down after him, and took the fords of Jordan toward
Moab,
and
suffered not a man to pass over.
07:003:029 And they slew of Moab at that time about
ten thousand men, all
lusty,
and all men of valour; and there escaped not a man.
07:003:030 So Moab was subdued that day under the
hand of Israel. And the
land
had rest fourscore years.
07:003:031 And after him was Shamgar the son of Anath,
which slew of the
Philistines
six hundred men with an ox goad: and he also
delivered
Israel.
07:004:001 And the children of Israel again did evil
in the sight of the
lord,
when Ehud was dead.
07:004:002 And the lord sold them into the hand
of Jabin king of Canaan,
that
reigned in Hazor; the captain of whose host was Sisera,
which
dwelt in Harosheth of the Gentiles.
07:004:003 And the children of Israel cried unto the
lord: for he had
nine
hundred chariots of iron; and twenty years he mightily
oppressed
the children of Israel.
07:004:004 And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of
Lapidoth, she judged
Israel
at that time.
07:004:005 And she dwelt under the palm tree of Deborah
between Ramah and
Bethel
in mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came
up to
her
for judgment.
07:004:006 And she sent and called Barak the son of
Abinoam out of
Kedeshnaphtali,
and said unto him, Hath not the lord God of
Israel
commanded, saying, Go and draw toward mount Tabor,
and
take
with thee ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali
and
of the children of Zebulun?
