וַיָּ֣שֶׁב אֱלֹהִ֔ים אֵ֖ת רָעַ֣ת אֲבִימֶ֑לֶךְ אֲשֶׁ֤ר עָשָׂה֙ לְאָבִ֔יו לַהֲרֹ֖ג אֶת־שִׁבְעִ֥ים אֶחָֽיו

In this verse and the next one, the author concludes the story by explaining that God punished Abimelek and the men of Shechem for what they did to Gideon’s family. Your language may have its own way of concluding a story.

וַיָּ֣שֶׁב אֱלֹהִ֔ים אֵ֖ת רָעַ֣ת אֲבִימֶ֑לֶךְ
and,repaid ʼElohīm DOM evil ʼAⱱīmelek
The author is speaking as if the evil that Abimelek did had literally been moving away from him and God turned it back so that it returned to him and harmed him. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “So God made Abimelek experience the same kind of harm he had done to other people”

evil ʼAⱱīmelek which/who he/it_had_made to,father,his
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of evil, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “the evil thing that Abimelek had done to his father”
9:1-57 The reign of Abimelech was the turning point between the comparative rest of the early period of judges (3:7–8:35) and the decline of the later years (10:1–16:31).
