28After seeking adviceH3289, the kingH4428 madeH6213 twoH8147 goldenH2091 calvesH5695 and saidH559 to the peopleH413,1 “Going upH5927 to JerusalemH3389 is too muchH7227 for you. HereH2009, O IsraelH3478, are your godsH430, whoH834 brought you upH5927 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.”

29OneH259 calf he set upH7760 in BethelH1008, and the otherH259 in DanH1835. 30And thisH2088 thingH1697 becameH1961 a sinH2403; the peopleH5971 walkedH1980 as far asH5704 DanH1835 to worship beforeH6440 oneH259 of the calves.2
