Judges 3:13-16
New International Version
13 Getting the Ammonites(A) and Amalekites(B) to join him, Eglon came and attacked Israel, and they took possession of the City of Palms.[a](C) 14 The Israelites were subject to Eglon king of Moab(D) for eighteen years.
15 Again the Israelites cried out to the Lord, and he gave them a deliverer(E)—Ehud(F), a left-handed(G) man, the son of Gera the Benjamite. The Israelites sent him with tribute(H) to Eglon king of Moab. 16 Now Ehud(I) had made a double-edged sword about a cubit[b] long, which he strapped to his right thigh under his clothing.
