    Judges 3

    1 Now these are the nations which the LORD left, to prove Israel by them, even as many of Israel as had not known all the wars of Canaan;KJRV — Judges 3:1

    2 Only that the generations of the children of Israel might know, to teach them war, at the least such as before knew nothing thereof;KJRV — Judges 3:2

    3 Namely, five lords of the Philistines, and all the Canaanites, and the Sidonians, and the Hivites that dwelt in mount Lebanon, from mount Baalhermon unto the entering in of Hamath.KJRV — Judges 3:3

    4 And they were to prove Israel by them, to know whether they would hearken unto the commandments of the LORD, which he commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses.KJRV — Judges 3:4

    5 And the children of Israel dwelt among the Canaanites, Hittites, and Amorites, and Perizzites, and Hivites, and Jebusites:KJRV — Judges 3:5

    6 And they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their daughters to their sons, and served their gods.KJRV — Judges 3:6

    7 And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and forgat the LORD their God, and served Baalim and the groves.KJRV — Judges 3:7

    9 And when the children of Israel cried unto the LORD, the LORD raised up a deliverer to the children of Israel, who delivered them, even Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother.KJRV — Judges 3:9

    10 And the Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he judged Israel, and went out to war: and the LORD delivered Chushanrishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand; and his hand prevailed against Chushanrishathaim.KJRV — Judges 3:10

    11 And the land had rest forty years. And Othniel the son of Kenaz died.KJRV — Judges 3:11

    12 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD: and the LORD strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, because they had done evil in the sight of the LORD.KJRV — Judges 3:12

    13 And he gathered unto him the children of Ammon and Amalek, and went and smote Israel, and possessed the city of palm trees.KJRV — Judges 3:13

    14 So the children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years.KJRV — Judges 3:14

    15 But when the children of Israel cried unto the LORD, the LORD raised them up a deliverer, Ehud the son of Gera, a Benjamite, a man lefthanded: and by him the children of Israel sent a present unto Eglon the king of Moab.KJRV — Judges 3:15

    16 But Ehud made him a dagger which had two edges, of a cubit length; and he did gird it under his raiment upon his right thigh.KJRV — Judges 3:16

    17 And he brought the present unto Eglon king of Moab: and Eglon was a very fat man.KJRV — Judges 3:17

    18 And when he had made an end to offer the present, he sent away the people that bare the present.KJRV — Judges 3:18

    19 But he himself turned again from the quarries that were by Gilgal, and said, I have a secret errand unto thee, O king: who said, Keep silence. And all that stood by him went out from him.KJRV — Judges 3:19

    20 And Ehud came unto him; and he was sitting in a summer parlor, which he had for himself alone. And Ehud said, I have a message from God unto thee. And he arose out of his seat.KJRV — Judges 3:20

    21 And Ehud put forth his left hand, and took the dagger from his right thigh, and thrust it into his belly:KJRV — Judges 3:21

    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.KJRV — Judges 3:22

    23 Then Ehud went forth through the porch, and shut the doors of the parlor upon him, and locked them.KJRV — Judges 3:23

    24 When he was gone out, his servants came; and when they saw that, behold, the doors of the parlor were locked, they said, Surely he covereth his feet in his summer chamber.KJRV — Judges 3:24
