1 Kings 12:25-33

25Then 1JeroboamH3379 builtH1129 ShechemH7927 in the hillH2022 countryH2022 of EphraimH669, and livedH3427 2there. And he wentH3318 out from thereH8033 and builtH1129 3PenuelH6439.

26JeroboamH3379 saidH559 in his heartH3820, “NowH6258 the kingdomH4467 will returnH7725 to the houseH1004 of DavidH1732.

274IfH518 thisH2088 peopleH5971 goH5927 up to offerH6213 sacrificesH2077 in the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 at JerusalemH3389, then the heartH3820 of thisH2088 peopleH5971 will returnH7725 to their lordH113, even to RehoboamH7346 kingH4428 of JudahH3063; and they will killH2026 me and returnH7725 to RehoboamH7346 kingH4428 of JudahH3063.”

28So the kingH4428 5consultedH3289, and 6madeH6213 twoH8147 goldenH2091 7calvesH5695, and he saidH559 to them, “It is tooH4480 muchH7227 for you to goH5927 up to JerusalemH3389; 8beholdH2009 your godsH430, O IsraelH3478, that broughtH5927 you up from the landH776 of EgyptH4714.”

29He setH7760 9oneH259 in 10BethelH1008, and the otherH259 he putH5414 in 11DanH1835.

30Now 12thisH2088 thingH1697 becameH1961 a sinH2403, for the peopleH5971 wentH1980 to worship beforeH6440 the oneH259 as farH5704 as DanH1835.

31And 13he madeH6213 housesH1004 on highH1116 placesH1116, and 14madeH6213 priestsH3548 from among 15allH7098 the peopleH5971 whoH834 were not of the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878.

32JeroboamH3379 16institutedH6213 a feastH2282 in the eighthH8066 monthH2320 on the fifteenthH2568H6240 dayH3117 of the monthH2320, 17like the feastH2282 whichH834 is in JudahH3063, and he 18wentH5927 up to the altarH4196; thusH3651 he didH6213 in BethelH1008, sacrificingH2076 to the calvesH5695 whichH834 he had madeH6213. And he stationedH5975 in BethelH1008 19the priestsH3548 of the highH1116 placesH1116 whichH834 he had madeH6213.

33Then he 20wentH5927 up to the altarH4196 whichH834 he had madeH6213 in BethelH1008 on the fifteenthH2568H6240 dayH3117 in the eighthH8066 monthH2320, even in the monthH2320 whichH834 he had 2122devisedH908 23in his own heartH3820; and he 24institutedH6213 a feastH2282 for the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 and 25wentH5927 up to the altarH4196 26to burnH6999 27incenseH6999.
