Judges 3:26

---

← Judges 3:25	Judges 3:26 (KJV)	Judges 3:27 →
And they tarried till they were ashamed: and, behold, he opened not the doors of the parlour; therefore they took a key, and opened [them]: and, behold, their lord [was] fallen down dead on the earth.	And Ehud escaped while they tarried, and passed beyond the quarries, and escaped unto Seirath.	And it came to pass, when he was come, that he blew a trumpet in the mountain of Ephraim, and the children of Israel went down with him from the mount, and he before them.
