Judges 3:25-27
New English Translation
25 They waited so long they were embarrassed, but he still did not open the doors of the upper room. Finally they took the key and opened the doors.[a] Right before their eyes was their master, sprawled out dead on the floor![b] 26 Now Ehud had escaped while they were delaying. When he passed the carved images, he escaped to Seirah.
27 When he reached Seirah,[c] he blew a trumpet[d] in the Ephraimite hill country. The Israelites went down with him from the hill country, with Ehud in the lead.[e]
