11. And the land had rest arba'im shanah. And Otniel ben Kenaz died.
12. And the Bnei Yisroel did rah again in the sight of Hashem; and Hashem strengthened Eglon Melech Moav against Yisroel, because they had done rah in the sight of Hashem.
13. And he gathered unto him the Bnei Ammon and Amalek, and went and attacked Yisroel, and possessed the Ir HaTemarim.
14. So the Bnei Yisroel served Eglon Melech Moav eighteen years.
15. But when the Bnei Yisroel cried unto Hashem, Hashem raised them up a Moshi'a, Ehud ben Gera, from the tribe of Binyamin, a man left-handed; and by him the Bnei Yisroel sent a minchah unto Eglon Melech Moav.
16. But Ehud made him a cherev which had two edges of a cubit length; and he did gird it under his raiment upon his right thigh.
17. And he brought the minchah unto Eglon Melech Moav; and Eglon was an ish bari me'od (very fat man).
18. And when he had made an end to offer the minchah, he sent away the people that carried the minchah (tribute).
