*
Thus was Midian subdued before the children of Israel ,
so that they raised their heads no more .
And the country was in quietness forty years in the days of Gideon .
*
And Jerubbaal the son of Joash went and dwelt in his own house .
*
And Gideon had seventy sons of his body begotten :
for he had many wives .
*
And his concubine that was in Shechem ,
she also bore him a son ,
whose name he called Abimelech .
*
And Gideon the son of Joash died in a good old age ,
and was buried in the sepulcher of Joash his father ,
in Ophrah of the Abi-ezrites .
*
And it came to pass as soon as Gideon was dead ,
that the children of Israel turned again ,
and went astray after Baalim ,
and made Baal-berith their god .
*
And the children of Israel remembered not the LORD their God ,
who had delivered them from the hands of all their enemies on every side :
*
Neither showed they kindness to the house of Jerubbaal ,
namely Gideon ,
according to all the goodness which he had shown to Israel .
