Judges 3:23-25

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

²³ Then Ehud went out into the vestibule^[a] and closed the doors of the roof chamber on him and locked them.

²⁴ After he had gone, the servants came. When they saw that the doors of the roof chamber were locked, they thought, “He must be relieving himself^[b] in the cool chamber.”^{(A) 25} So they waited until they were embarrassed. When he still did not open the doors of the roof chamber, they took the key and opened them. There was their lord lying dead on the floor.^(B)
