29 ^fJerubbaal the son of Joash went and lived in his own house. 30 Now Gideon had ^gseventy sons, his own offspring,¹ for he had many wives. 31 And his concubine ^hwho was in Shechem also bore him a son, and he called his name Abimelech. 32 And Gideon the son of Joash died ⁱin a good old age and was buried in the tomb of Joash his father, ^jat Ophrah of the Abiezrites.

33 ^kAs soon as Gideon died, the people of Israel turned again and ^lwhored after the Baals and made ^mBaal-berith their god. 34 And the people of Israel ⁿdid not remember the Lord their God, who had delivered them from the hand of all their enemies on every side, 35 ^oand they did not show steadfast love to the family of Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) in return for all the good that he had done to Israel.
