Judges 3:17
15 And again they cried out to the LORD, and He raised up Ehud son of Gera, a left-handed Benjamite, as their deliverer. So they sent him with tribute to Eglon king of Moab.
16 Now Ehud had made for himself a double-edged sword a cubit long. He strapped it to his right thigh under his cloak
and brought the tribute to Eglon king of Moab, who was an obese man.
18 After Ehud had finished presenting the tribute, he ushered out those who had carried it.
19 But upon reaching the idols near Gilgal, he himself turned back and said, “I have a secret message for you, O king.” “Silence,” said the king, and all his attendants left him.
