Judges 8:27-29

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

²⁷ Gideon made an ephod^(A) from all this and put it in Ophrah, his home town. Then all Israel prostituted themselves by worshipping it there, and it became a snare to Gideon and his household.

²⁸ So Midian was subdued before the Israelites, and they were no longer a threat. The land had peace for forty years^(B) during the days of Gideon. ²⁹ Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) son of Joash went back to live at his house.
