Judges 3:20-22
International Standard Version

20 Ehud approached him while he was sitting by himself in the cool roof chamber of his palace.[a] He said, “I have a message from God for you!” So when Eglon[b] got up from his seat, 21 Ehud used his left hand to take the sword from his right thigh and then plunged it into Eglon’s[c] abdomen. 22 The hilt also penetrated along with the sword blade, and Eglon’s fat closed in over the blade. Because he did not withdraw the sword from Eglon’s abdomen, the sword point[d] exited from Eglon’s entrails.[e]
