6 Yet Jeroboam the son of Nebat, the servant of Solomon the son of David, rose up and arebelled against his lord.
7 Then aworthless rogues gathered to him, and strengthened themselves against Rehoboam the son of Solomon, when Rehoboam was byoung and inexperienced and could not withstand them.
8 And now you think to withstand the kingdom of the Lord, which is in the hand of the sons of David; and you are a great multitude, and with you are the gold calves which Jeroboam amade for you as gods.
9 aHave you not cast out the priests of the Lord, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and made for yourselves priests, like the peoples of other lands, bso that whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bull and seven rams may be a priest of cthings that are not gods?
10 But as for us, the Lord is our aGod, and we have not forsaken Him; and the priests who minister to the Lord are the sons of Aaron, and the Levites attend to their duties.
