1 Kings 12:26

Jeroboam Becomes King Over Israel

From there he went out and built up Penuel. ²⁶ Jeroboam then thought to himself: "Now the Davidic dynasty could regain the kingdom. ²⁷ If these people go up to offer sacrifices in the Lord's temple in Jerusalem, their loyalty could shift to their former master, King Rehoboam of Judah. They might kill me and return to King Rehoboam of Judah."
