1These are the nations which Yahweh al owed to remain, by their means to put all those Israelites to thetest who had not experienced any of the Canaanite wars2(this was only to instruct the Israelites' descendants, to teach them the art of war, those at least whohad not experienced it previously):3the five chiefs of the Philistines, al the Canaanites, the Sidonians, and the Hittites who lived in therange of the Lebanon, from the uplands of Baal-Hermon to the Pass of Hamath.4They were used to put Israel to the test and see if they would keep the orders which Yahweh had giventheir ancestors through Moses.5The Israelites lived among the Canaanites, Hittites and Amorites, the Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites;6they married their daughters, they gave their own sons to their daughters and they served their gods.7The Israelites did what is evil in Yahweh's eyes. They forgot Yahweh their God and served Baals andAsherahs.8Then Yahweh's anger blazed out against Israel: he handed them over to Cushan-Rishathaim king ofEdom, and the Israelites were enslaved to Cushan-Rishathaim for eight years.9The Israelites then cried to Yahweh and Yahweh raised for the Israelites a deliverer who rescued them,Othniel son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother.10The spirit of Yahweh was on him; he became judge in Israel and set out for war. Yahweh deliveredCushan-Rishathaim king of Edom into his hands, and he triumphed over Cushan- Rishathaim.11The country then had peace for forty years. Othniel son of Kenaz then died.12Again the Israelites began doing what is evil in Yahweh's eyes, and Yahweh strengthened Eglon kingof Moab against Israel, since they were doing what is evil in Yahweh's eyes.13Eglon in conjunction with the sons of Ammon and Amalek marched on Israel, beat them and capturedthe City of Palm Trees.14The Israelites were enslaved to Eglon king of Moab for eighteen years.15The Israelites then cried to Yahweh, and Yahweh raised a deliverer for them, Ehud son of Gera, aBenjaminite; he was left-handed. The Israelites appointed him to take their tribute to Eglon king of Moab.16Ehud made himself a dagger -- it was double-edged and a foot long -- and strapped it under hisclothes on his right thigh.17He presented the tribute to Eglon king of Moab. This Eglon was a very fat man.18Having presented the tribute, Ehud sent away the men who had been carrying it;19but he himself, on reaching the Idols which are near Gilgal, went back and said, 'I have a secretmessage for you, O king.' The king commanded silence, and al his attendants withdrew.20Ehud went up to him; he was sitting in his private room upstairs, where it was cool. Ehud said to him, 'Ihave a message from God for you, O king.' The latter immediately rose from his seat.21Then Ehud, reaching with his left hand, drew the dagger he was carrying on his right thigh and thrust itinto the king's belly.22The hilt too went in after the blade, and the fat closed over the blade, since Ehud did not pul thedagger out of his bel y again.23Ehud went out through the privies, having shut and bolted the doors of the upstairs room behind him.24When he had gone, the servants came back and looked; the doors of the upstairs room were bolted.They thought, 'He is probably covering his feet in the inner part of the cool room.'25They waited until they became embarrassed, but stil he did not open the doors of the upstairs room.Eventual y, they took the key and opened the door; and there lay their master, dead, on the ground.26Meanwhile, Ehud had got away, passed the Idols and made good his escape to safety in Seirah.27Once there, he sounded the horn in the highlands of Ephraim, and the Israelites came down from thehil s with him at their head.28And he said to them, 'Follow me, because Yahweh has delivered your enemy Moab into your hands.'So they followed him, seized the fords of the Jordan against Moab and al owed no one to cross.29On that occasion they beat the Moabites, some ten thousand men, all tough and seasoned fighters,and not one escaped.30That day Moab was humbled under the hand of Israel, and the country had peace for eighty years.31After him came Shamgar son of Anath. He routed six hundred of the Philistines with an ox-goad; hetoo was a deliverer of Israel.
