1 Kings 12:28-33

28 So the king took counsel and ^amade two calves of gold. And he said to the people, “You have gone up to Jerusalem long enough. ^bBehold your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.” 29 And he set one in Bethel, and the other he put in Dan. 30 Then ^cthis thing became a sin, for the people went as far as Dan to be before one. ^{▼▼Septuagint went to the one at Bethel and to the other as far as Dan} 31 He also made ^etemples on high places and ^fappointed priests from among all the people, who were not of the Levites. 32 And Jeroboam appointed a feast on the fifteenth day of the eighth month like ^gthe feast that was in Judah, and he offered sacrifices on the altar. So he did in Bethel, sacrificing to the calves that he made. And he placed in Bethel ^hthe priests of the high places that he had made. 33 He went up to the altar that he had made in Bethel on the fifteenth day in the eighth month, in the month that he had devised from his own heart. And he instituted a feast for the people of Israel and went up to the altar ⁱto make offerings.
