The Trauels of Ehud the third Iudge of Israel.

EHud was the sonne of Gira of the Tribe of Iuda, and dwelt in the City of Iericho or of the Palmes. Hee was a vali∣ant and resolute man, lame of his right hand, Iudg. 3. and to the iudgement of man not fit to bee a Captaine, beeing so in∣firme. Yet it happened that this man growing in fauor with Eg∣lon King of the Moabites, who at this time kept his Court in Ie∣richo (which towne he had but eighteene yeares before conque∣red) tooke opportunitie by the Children of Israels comming to Gilgal (for they came thither to offer to the Idoll, and to bring

gifts of the king) to present these presents vnto him; and because of his former familiaritie, was admitted to speake in priuat with him in his summer parlour; where as he was talking with him, he thrust him into the belly with a short knife: and locking the dore he fled back to Seirah, and told the children of Israell what he had done. From thence they presently went to Ephraim, there blew the trumpet, and set vpon the Moabits and put them to the sword, Iudg. 3.
