26 But by that time, Ehud had already escaped past the statues.Ehud went to the town of Seirah
27-28 in the hill country of Ephraim and started blowing a signal on a trumpet. The Israelites came together, and he shouted, “Follow me! The Lord will help us defeat the Moabites.”The Israelites followed Ehud down to the Jordan Valley, and they captured the places where people cross the river on the way to Moab. They would not let anyone go across,
29 and before the fighting was over, they killed about ten thousand Moabite warriors—not one escaped alive.
30 Moab was so badly defeated that it was a long time before they were strong enough to attack Israel again. And Israel was at peace for eighty years.
31 Shamgar the son of Anath was the next to rescue Israel. In one battle, he used a sharp wooden pole to kill six hundred Philistines.
