Judges 8:25-27
25And they said, “We will certainly give them to you.” So they spread out a garment, and every one of them tossed an earring there from his plunder.
26The weight of the gold earrings that he requested was 1,700 shekels of gold, apart from the crescent amulets, the ear pendants, and the purple robes which were on the kings of Midian, and apart from the neck chains that were on their camels’ necks.
27Gideon made it into 1an ephod, and placed it in his city, Ophrah; but all Israel 2committed infidelity with it there, and it became a snare to Gideon and his household.
