27. When he arrived there, he blew a ram’s horn in the mountains of Ephraim ⌊to summon the troops⌋. So the troops of Israel came down from the mountains with him, and he led them.

28. He told them, “Follow me! The Lord will hand your enemy Moab over to you.”They followed him and captured the shallow crossings of the Jordan River that led to Moab and refused to let anyone cross.

29. At that time they killed about ten thousand of Moab’s best fighting men. Not one of them escaped.

30. The power of Moab was crushed by Israel that day. So there was finally peace in the land for 80 years.

31. After Ehud came Shamgar, son of Anath. He killed 600 Philistines with a sharp stick used for herding oxen. So he, too, rescued Israel.
