21. And Ehud put forth his semol (left hand), and drew the cherev from his right thigh, and thrust it into his belly;
22. And even the hilt went in after the blade; and the chelev closed upon the blade, so that he could not draw the cherev out of his belly; it came out the back.
23. Then Ehud went forth through the front hall, and shut the daletot of the aliyyah behind him, and locked them.
24. When he was gone out, his avadim came; and when they saw that, hinei, the daletot of the aliyyah were locked, they said, Surely he covereth his feet [i.e. relieves himself] in the chedar hamekerah (inner cool room).
25. And they tarried till bosh (embarrassed); and, hinei, he opened not the daletot of the aliyyah; therefore they took a mafte'ach (key), and unlocked them; and, hinei, their adon was fallen on the floor dead.
26. And Ehud escaped while they tarried, and passed beyond the pesilim, and escaped unto Seirah.
27. And it came to pass, when he arrived, that he blew a shofar in the har Ephrayim, and the Bnei Yisroel went down with him from the har, and he before them.
28. And he said unto them, Follow after me; for Hashem hath delivered your enemies Moav into your yad. And they went down after him, and took the fords of Yarden toward Moav, and allowed not an ish to pass over.
29. And they struck down Moav at that time about ten thousand ish, all strong ish chayil; and there escaped not an ish.
30. So Moav was subdued that day under the yad Yisroel. And HaAretz had rest fourscore shanah.
31. And after him was Shamgar ben Anat, which struck down of the Pelishtim (Philistines) six hundred ish with an ox goad; and he also saved Yisroel.
