13. And he gathered to himself the children of Ammon and Amalĕq, and went and smote Yisra’ĕl, and they took possession of the city of palms.
14. And the children of Yisra’ĕl served Eg̅lon sovereign of Mo’aḇ eighteen years.
15. And when the children of Yisra’ĕl cried out to יהוה, יהוה raised up a saviour for them: Ěhuḏ son of Gĕra, a Binyamite, a man impeded in his right hand. And by him the children of Yisra’ĕl sent a present to Eg̅lon sovereign of Mo’aḇ.
16. And Ěhuḏ 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 Eg̅lon sovereign of Mo’aḇ. Now Eg̅lon was a very fat man.
