"Now Ehud had escaped while they were delaying. When he passed the carved images, he escaped to Seirah."
— Judges 3:26, NET Bible
“And Ehud escaped while they tarried, and passed beyond the quarries, and escaped unto Seirath.”
“And Ehud escaped while they tarried, and passed beyond the quarries, and escaped unto Seirah. ”
“Ehud escaped while they waited, and passed beyond the quarries, and escaped to Seirah.”
“But Aod, while they were in confusion, escaped, and passed by the place of the idols from whence he had returned. And he came to Seirath:”
“But Ehud had got away while they were waiting and had gone past the stone images and got away to Seirah.”
“And Ehud escaped while they tarried, and passed beyond the quarries, and escaped unto Seirath.”
As Ehud went out into the vestibule, he closed the doors of the upper room behind him and locked them.
When Ehud had left, Eglon’s servants came and saw the locked doors of the upper room. They said,“He must be relieving himself in the well-ventilated inner room.”
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. Right before their eyes was their master, sprawled out dead on the floor!
Now Ehud had escaped while they were delaying. When he passed the carved images, he escaped to Seirah.
When he reached Seirah, he blew a trumpet in the Ephraimite hill country. The Israelites went down with him from the hill country, with Ehud in the lead.
He said to them,“Follow me, for the LORD is about to defeat your enemies, the Moabites!” They followed him, captured the fords of the Jordan River opposite Moab, and did not let anyone cross.
That day they killed about ten thousand Moabites– all strong, capable warriors; not one escaped.
