1.	And these are the nations which YHWH left, to try Yisra'el by them, all those who had not known all the battles in Kena'an,
2.	only that the generations of the children of Yisra'el might know, to teach them battle, only those who before did not know them:
3.	five princes of the Philistines, and all the Kena'anites, and the Tsidonians, and the Hiwwites who dwelt in Mount Lebanon, from Mount Ba'al Hermon to the entrance of Hamath.
4.	And they were to try Yisra'el by them, to know whether they would obey the commands of YHWH, which He had commanded their fathers by the hand of Mosheh.
5.	Thus the children of Yisra'el dwelt in the midst of the Kena'anites, the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hiwwites, and the Yebusites,
6.	and took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their daughters to their sons, and they served their mighty ones.

7.	Thus the children of Yisra`el did evil in the eyes of YHWH, and forgot YHWH their Elohim, and served the Ba`als and the Asherahs.
8.	And the displeasure of YHWH burned against Yisra'el, and He sold them into the hand of Kushan-Rish'athayim sovereign of Aram Naharayim. And the children of Yisra'el served Kushan-Rish'athayim eight years.
9.	And when the children of Yisra'el cried out to YHWH, YHWH raised up a saviour for the children of Yisra'el, who saved them: Othni'el son of Qenaz, Kaleb's younger brother.
10.	And the Spirit of YHWH came upon him, and he ruled Yisra'el, and went out to battle, and YHWH gave into his hand Kushan-Rish'athayim sovereign of Aram Naharayim. And his hand prevailed over Kushan-Rish'athayim,
11.	and the land had rest for forty years. Then Othni'el son of Qenaz died,
	Ehud...
12.	and the children of Yisra`el again did evil in the eyes of YHWH. And YHWH made Eglon sovereign of Mo`ab strong against Yisra`el, because they had done evil in the eyes of YHWH.
13.	And he gathered to himself the children of Ammon and Amaleq, and went and smote Yisra'el, and they took possession of the city of palms.
14.	And the children of Yisra'el served Eglon sovereign of Mo'ab eighteen years.
15.	And when the children of Yisra'el cried out to YHWH, YHWH raised up a saviour for them: Ehud son of Gera, a Binyamite, a man impeded in his right hand. And by him the children of Yisra'el sent a present to Eglon sovereign of Mo'ab.
16.	And Ehud made himself a sword, it was double-edged and a cubit in length, and he girded it under his long robe on his right thigh.
17.	And he brought the present to Eglon sovereign of Mo'ab. Now Eglon was a very fat man.
18.	And it came to be that when he had finished bringing near the present, he sent away the people bearing the present.
19.	But he himself turned back from the stone images that were at Gilgal, and said, 'I have a secret message for you, O sovereign.' And he said, 'Be silent!' And all those standing beside him went out from him.
20.	And Ehud came to him while he was sitting in his cool roof room. And Ehud said, 'I have a message from Elohim for you.' So he arose from his seat.
21.	And Ehud reached with his left hand, and took the sword from his right thigh, and thrust it into his stomach.
22.	And the handle went in after the blade, and the fat closed over the blade, for he did not draw the sword out of his stomach, and it came out behind.
23.	Then Ehud went out to the porch and shut the doors of the upper room behind him and locked them.
24.	And when he had gone out, his servants came to look and saw the doors of the roof room were locked. So they said, 'He is only covering his feet in the cool roof room.'
25.	And they waited until they were ashamed, but saw he was not opening the doors of the upper room. So they took the key and opened them and saw their master, fallen to the ground, dead.
26.	But while they were delaying Ehud escaped and had passed beyond the stone images, and escaped to Se'irah.
27.	And it came to be, when he arrived, that he blew the ram's horn in the mountains of Ephrayim, and the children of Yisra'el went down with him from the mountains, with him leading them.
28.	And he said to them, 'Follow me, for YHWH has given your enemies the Mo'abites into your hand.' And they went down after him, and took the fords of Yarden leading to Mo'ab, and did not allow anyone to pass over.
29.	And they smote about ten thousand men of Mo'ab at that time, all robust and brave men, and not a man escaped.
30.	And on that day Mo'ab was humbled under the hand of Yisra'el. And the land had rest for eighty years.
	Shamgar...
31.	And after him was Shamgar son of Anath, and he smote six hundred men of the Philistines with an ox goad. And he too saved Yisra`el.
