Judges 8:22-32

Then the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Gideon
<01439>_,
Rule
<04910> (8798)
thou over us, both thou, and thy son
<01121>_,
and thy son's
<01121>
son
<01121>
also: for thou hast delivered
<03467> (8689)
us from the hand
<03027>
of Midian
<04080>_.
And Gideon
<01439>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, I will not rule
<04910> (8799)
over you, neither shall my son
<01121>
rule
<04910> (8799)
over you: the LORD
<03068>
shall rule
<04910> (8799)
over you.
And Gideon
<01439>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, I would desire
<07592> (8799)
a request
<07596>
of you, that ye would give
<05414> (8798)
me every man
<0376>
the earrings
<05141>
of his prey
<07998>_.
(For they had golden
<02091>
earrings
<05141>_,
because they [were] Ishmaelites
<03459>.)
And they answered
<0559> (8799)_,
We will willingly
<05414> (8800)
give
<05414> (8799)
[them]. And they spread
<06566> (8799)
a garment
<08071>_,
and did cast
<07993> (8686)
therein every man
<0376>
the earrings
<05141>
of his prey
<07998>_.
And the weight
<04948>
of the golden
<02091>
earrings
<05141>
that he requested
<07592> (8804)
was a thousand
<0505>
and seven
<07651>
hundred
<03967>
[shekels] of gold
<02091>_;
beside ornaments
<07720>_,
and collars
<05188>_,
and purple
<0713>
raiment
<0899>
that [was] on the kings
<04428>
of Midian
<04080>_,
and beside the chains
<06060>
that [were] about their camels
<01581>_'
necks
<06677>_.
{collars: or, sweet jewels}
And Gideon
<01439>
made
<06213> (8799)
an ephod
<0646>
thereof, and put
<03322> (8686)
it in his city
<05892>_,
[even] in Ophrah
<06084>_:
and all Israel
<03478>
went thither a whoring
<02181> (8799)
after
<0310>
it: which thing became a snare
<04170>
unto Gideon
<01439>_,
and to his house
<01004>_.
Thus was Midian
<04080>
subdued
<03665> (8735)
before
<06440>
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
so that they lifted up
<05375> (8800)
their heads
<07218>
no more
<03254> (8804)_.
And the country
<0776>
was in quietness
<08252> (8799)
forty
<0705>
years
<08141>
in the days
<03117>
of Gideon
<01439>_.
And Jerubbaal
<03378>
the son
<01121>
of Joash
<03101>
went
<03212> (8799)
and dwelt
<03427> (8799)
in his own house
<01004>_.
And Gideon
<01439>
had threescore and ten
<07657>
sons
<01121>
of his body
<03409>
begotten
<03318> (8802)_:
for he had many
<07227>
wives
<0802>_.
{of his...: Heb. going out of his thigh}
And his concubine
<06370>
that [was] in Shechem
<07927>_,
she also bare
<03205> (8804)
him a son
<01121>_,
whose name
<08034>
he called
<07760> (8799)
Abimelech
<040>_.
{called: Heb. set}
And Gideon
<01439>
the son
<01121>
of Joash
<03101>
died
<04191> (8799)
in a good
<02896>
old age
<07872>_,
and was buried
<06912> (8735)
in the sepulchre
<06913>
of Joash
<03101>
his father
<01>_,
in Ophrah
<06084>
of the Abiezrites
<033>_.
