Judges 3:22 in Context — Judges 3

20 Y llegóse Aod á él, el cual estaba sentado solo en una sala de verano. Y Aod dijo: Tengo palabra de Dios para ti. El entonces se levantó de la silla.

21 Mas Aod metió su mano izquierda, y tomó el puñal de su lado derecho, y metióselo por el vientre;

22 De tal manera que la empuñadura entró también tras la hoja, y la grosura encerró la hoja, que él no sacó el puñal de su vientre: y salió el estiércol.

23 Y saliendo Aod al patio, cerró tras sí las puertas de la sala.

24 Y salido él, vinieron sus siervos, los cuales viendo las puertas de la sala cerradas, dijeron: Sin duda él cubre sus pies en la sala de verano.
