Lexham English Bible
27 if this people go up to offer sacrifices in the house[a] of Yahweh in Jerusalem. The heart of this people will return to their master Rehoboam the king of Judah, and they shall kill me and return to him.”[b]
28 And the king had decided, so he made two golden calves and he said to them,[c] “You have been going up to Jerusalem long enough;[d] here are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up from the land of Egypt.” 29 He put one in Bethel, and the other he put in Dan.
