Judges 8:24-33
24And GideonH1439 saidH559 to them, I would desireH7592 a requestH7596 of you, that you would giveH5414 me every manH376 the earringsH5141 of his spoilH7998. (For they had goldenH2091 earringsH5141, because they were IshmaelitesH3459.) 25And they answeredH559, We will willinglyH5414 giveH5414 them . And they spreadH6566 a garmentH8071, and castH7993 into it every manH376 the earringsH5141 of his spoilH7998. 26And the weightH4948 of the goldenH2091 earringsH5141 that he requestedH7592 was a thousandH505 and sevenH7651 hundredH3967 shekels of goldH2091; besides ornamentsH7720, and collarsH5188, and purpleH713 raimentH899 that was on the kingsH4428 of MidianH4080, and besides the chainsH6060 that were about their camelsH1581’ necksH6677.1 27And GideonH1439 madeH6213 of it an ephodH646, and putH3322 it in his cityH5892, even in OphrahH6084: and all IsraelH3478 went there playing the harlot withH2181H310 it: which thing became a snareH4170 to GideonH1439, and to his houseH1004. 28Thus was MidianH4080 subduedH3665 beforeH6440 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, so that they raisedH5375 their headsH7218 no moreH3254. And the countryH776 was in quietnessH8252 fortyH705 yearsH8141 in the daysH3117 of GideonH1439.
29And JerubbaalH3378 the sonH1121 of JoashH3101 wentH3212 and dweltH3427 in his own houseH1004. 30And GideonH1439 had seventyH7657 sonsH1121 of his bodyH3409 begottenH3318: for he had manyH7227 wivesH802.2 31And his concubineH6370 that was in ShechemH7927, she also boreH3205 him a sonH1121, whose nameH8034 he calledH7760 AbimelechH40.3 32And GideonH1439 the sonH1121 of JoashH3101 diedH4191 in a goodH2896 old ageH7872, and was buriedH6912 in the sepulchreH6913 of JoashH3101 his fatherH1, in OphrahH6084 of the AbiezritesH33. 33And it came to pass, as soon as GideonH1439 was deadH4191, that the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 turned againH7725, and went playing the harlot withH2181H310 BaalimH1168, and madeH7760 BaalberithH1170 their godH430.
