<p class="bodytext">One time Acsah<n id="1" /> came and charmed her father<n id="2" /> so she could ask him for some land. When she got down from her donkey, Caleb said to her, &#8220;What would you like?&#8221;

Ehud reached with his left hand, pulled the sword from his right thigh, and drove it into Eglon&#8217;s<n id="1" /> belly.

As the flame went up from the altar toward the sky, the <sc>Lordsc>&#8217;s messenger went up in it<n id="1" /> while Manoah and his wife watched. They fell facedown<n id="2" /> to the ground.p>

So Delilah took new ropes and tied him with them and said to him, &#8220;The Philistines are here,<n id="1" /> Samson!&#8221; (The Philistines were hiding in the bedroom.)<n id="2" /> But he tore the ropes<n id="3" /> from his arms as if they were a piece of thread.p>

When Ehud approached him, he was sitting in his well-ventilated<n id="1" /> upper room all by himself. Ehud said, &#8220;I have a message from God<n id="2" /> for you.&#8221; When Eglon rose up from his seat,<n id="3" />

The <sc>Lordsc> routed<n id="1" /> Sisera, all his chariotry, and all his army with the edge of the sword.<n id="2" /> Sisera jumped out of<n id="3" /> his chariot and ran away on foot.

When he arrived in Lehi, the Philistines shouted as they approached him. But the <sc>Lordsc>&#8217;s spirit empowered<n id="1" /> him. The ropes around his arms were like flax dissolving in<n id="2" /> fire, and they<n id="3" /> melted away from his hands.
