Jeroboam Continues In His Sin
32 For the saying which he cried at the bidding of the LORD against the altar in Bethel, and against all the houses of hill altars which are in the cities of Samaria, shall come to pass." 33 Howbeit, for all that, Jeroboam turned not from his wicked way: but turned away and made of the lowest of the people priests of the hill altars. Whosoever would, he filled their hands, and they became priests of the hill altars. 34 And this doing was sin unto the house of Jeroboam, even to destroy it and to put it away from off the face of the earth.
