1 Kings 12:26-33

And Jeroboam
<03379>
said
<0559> (8799)
in his heart
<03820>_,
Now shall the kingdom
<04467>
return
<07725> (8799)
to the house
<01004>
of David
<01732>_:
If this people
<05971>
go up
<05927> (8799)
to do
<06213> (8800)
sacrifice
<02077>
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>
at Jerusalem
<03389>_,
then shall the heart
<03820>
of this people
<05971>
turn again
<07725> (8804)
unto their lord
<0113>_,
[even] unto Rehoboam
<07346>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and they shall kill
<02026> (8804)
me, and go again
<07725> (8804)
to Rehoboam
<07346>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_.
Whereupon the king
<04428>
took counsel
<03289> (8735)_,
and made
<06213> (8799)
two
<08147>
calves
<05695>
[of] gold
<02091>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, It is too much
<07227>
for you to go up
<05927> (8800)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_:
behold thy gods
<0430>_,
O Israel
<03478>_,
which brought thee up
<05927> (8689)
out of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_.
And he set
<07760> (8799)
the one
<0259>
in Bethel
<01008>_,
and the other
<0259>
put
<05414> (8804)
he in Dan
<01835>_.
And this thing
<01697>
became a sin
<02403>_:
for the people
<05971>
went
<03212> (8799)
[to worship] before
<06440>
the one
<0259>_,
[even] unto Dan
<01835>_.
And he made
<06213> (8799)
an house
<01004>
of high places
<01116>_,
and made
<06213> (8799)
priests
<03548>
of the lowest
<07098>
of the people
<05971>_,
which were not of the sons
<01121>
of Levi
<03878>_.
And Jeroboam
<03379>
ordained
<06213> (8799)
a feast
<02282>
in the eighth
<08066>
month
<02320>_,
on the fifteenth
<02568> <06240>
day
<03117>
of the month
<02320>_,
like unto the feast
<02282>
that [is] in Judah
<03063>_,
and he offered
<05927> (8686)
upon the altar
<04196>_.
So did
<06213> (8804)
he in Bethel
<01008>_,
sacrificing
<02076> (8763)
unto the calves
<05695>
that he had made
<06213> (8804)_:
and he placed
<05975> (8689)
in Bethel
<01008>
the priests
<03548>
of the high places
<01116>
which he had made
<06213> (8804)_.
{offered...: or, went up to the altar, etc} {sacrificing: or, to sacrifice}
So he offered
<05927> (8686)
upon the altar
<04196>
which he had made
<06213> (8804)
in Bethel
<01008>
the fifteenth
<02568> <06240>
day
<03117>
of the eighth
<08066>
month
<02320>_,
[even] in the month
<02320>
which he had devised
<0908> (8804)
of his own heart
<03820>_;
and ordained
<06213> (8799)
a feast
<02282>
unto the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_:
and he offered
<05927> (8686)
upon the altar
<04196>_,
and burnt incense
<06999> (8687)_.
{offered...: or, went up to the altar, etc} {and burnt...: Heb. to burn incense}
