    26Ehud escaped while they waited, passed beyond the stone idols, and escaped to Seirah.

    27When he had come, he blew a trumpet in the hill country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel went down with him from the hill country, and he led them.

    28He said to them, “Follow me; for the LORD has delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand.” They followed him, and took the fords of the Jordan against the Moabites, and didn’t allow any man to pass over.

    29They struck at that time about ten thousand men of Moab, every strong man and every man of valor. No man escaped.

    30So Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel. Then the land had rest eighty years.
