2 Chronicles 13:8-11

8And now ye thinkH559 to withstandH2388 the kingdomH4467H6440 of YhwhH3068 in the handH3027 of the sonsH1121 of DavidH1732; and ye be a greatH7227 multitudeH1995, and there are with you goldenH2091 calvesH5695, which JeroboamH3379 madeH6213 you for godsH430.

9Have ye not cast outH5080 the priestsH3548 of YhwhH3068, the sonsH1121 of AaronH175, and the LevitesH3881, and have madeH6213 you priestsH3548 after the manner of the nationsH5971 of other landsH776? so that whosoever comethH935 to consecrateH3027H4390 himself with a youngH1241H1121 bullockH6499 and sevenH7651 ramsH352, the same may be a priestH3548 of them that are noH3808 godsH430.1

10But as for us, YhwhH3068 is our GodH430, and we have not forsakenH5800 him; and the priestsH3548, which ministerH8334 unto YhwhH3068, are the sonsH1121 of AaronH175, and the LevitesH3881 wait upon their businessH4399:

11And they burnH6999 unto YhwhH3068 every morningH1242 and every eveningH6153 burnt sacrificesH5930 and sweetH5561 incenseH7004: the shewbreadH4635H3899 also set they in order upon the pureH2889 tableH7979; and the lampstandH4501 of goldH2091 with the lampsH5216 thereof, to burnH1197 every eveningH6153: for we keepH8104 the chargeH4931 of YhwhH3068 our GodH430; but ye have forsakenH5800 him.
