24 When he had gone out,1 Eglon’s servants came to look, and to their surprise, the doors of the upper room were locked. So they said, “He is probably aattending to his needs in the cool chamber.”
25 So they waited till they were aembarrassed, and still he had not opened the doors of the upper room. Therefore they took the key and opened them. And there was their master, fallen dead on the floor.
26 But Ehud had escaped while they delayed, and passed beyond the1 stone images and escaped to Seirah.
27 And it happened, when he arrived, that ahe blew the trumpet in the bmountains of Ephraim, and the children of Israel went down with him from the mountains; and1 he led them.
28 Then he said to them, “Follow me, for athe Lord has delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand.” So they went down after him, seized the bfords of the Jordan leading to Moab, and did not allow anyone to cross over.
