Judges 8:32

Read in context

Judges 8:30–34 · Berean Standard Bible

30 Gideon had seventy sons of his own, since he had many wives.

31 His concubine, who dwelt in Shechem, also bore him a son, and he named him Abimelech.

32 Later, Gideon son of Joash died at a ripe old age and was buried in the tomb of his father Joash in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.

33 And as soon as Gideon was dead, the Israelites turned and prostituted themselves with the Baals, and they set up Baal-berith as their god.

34 The Israelites failed to remember the LORD their God who had delivered them from the hands of all their enemies on every side.
