| 22 | And the haft also went in after the blade; and the fat closed upon the blade, so that he could not draw the dagger out of his belly; and the dirt came out. | Even the handle sank in after the blade, and Eglon’s fat closed in over it, so that Ehud did not withdraw the sword from his belly. And Eglon’s bowels emptied. | and the haft also went in after the blade; and the fat closed upon the blade, for he drew not the sword out of his body; and it came out behind. |
