Jehovah Shall Rule over You — Judges 8:24–27
And Gideon said unto them,
I would make a request of you, that ye would give me every man the ear-rings of his spoil.
(For they had golden ear-rings, because they were Ishmaelites.)
And they answered,
We will willingly give them.
And they spread a garment, and did cast therein every man the ear-rings of his spoil.
And the weight of the golden ear-rings that he requested was a thousand and seven hundred shekels of gold; besides the crescents, and the pendants, and the purple raiment that was on the kings of Midian, and besides the chains that were about their camels' necks.
And Gideon made an ephod thereof, and put it in his city, even in Ophrah: and all Israel played the harlot after it there; and it became a snare unto Gideon, and to his house.
