But he himself turned again from the quarries that were by Gilgal, and said, I have a secret errand unto thee, O king: who said, Keep silence. And all that stood by him went out from him.

Verse 19 is found in chapter 3 of Judges. Ehud makes a short sword and manages to approach Eglon under the pretext of delivering a secret message. After killing the king, he escapes and summons Israel against the Moabites. The story combines irony, strategy, and military deliverance. The victory is not attributed to Israel’s conventional superiority but to God’s intervention through an unexpected deliverer.

und kehrte um von den Götzen zu Gilgal und ließ ansagen: Ich habe, o König, dir was Heimliches zu sagen. Er aber hieß schweigen, und gingen aus von ihm alle, die um ihn standen.
Mas él se volvió desde los ídolos que están en Gilgal, y dijo: Rey, una palabra secreta tengo que decirte. El entonces dijo: Calla. Y saliéronse de con él todos los que delante de él estaban.
Pero él regresó desde los ídolos que estaban junto a Gilgal y dijo: «Rey, tengo un mensaje secreto para ti». El rey dijo: «¡Silencio!». Y salieron de su presencia todos los que lo atendían.
Il revint lui-même depuis les carrières près de Guilgal, et il dit: O roi! j'ai quelque chose de secret à te dire. Le roi dit: Silence! Et tous ceux qui étaient auprès de lui sortirent.
Ma egli se ne ritornò al re, dalle statue di pietra, che son presso di Ghilgal; e gli disse: Io ho alcuna cosa segreta a dirti. Ed egli gli disse: Taci. Allora tutti quelli che gli stavano d’intorno uscirono fuori d’appresso a lui.
Porém ele mesmo voltou das imagens de escultura que estavam ao pé de Gilgal, e disse: Tenho uma palavra secreta para ti, ó rei. O qual disse: Cala-te. E todos os que lhe assistiam saíram de diante dele.
但他自己卻從靠近 吉甲 的雕像那裏轉回來,說:「王啊,我有一件機密的事要奏告你。」王說:「迴避吧!」於是所有侍立在他左右的人都退去了。
