28After seeking advice, the king made two golden calves and said to the people, “Going up to Jerusalem is too much for you. Here, O Israel, are your gods, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.”
29One calf he set up in Bethel, and the other in Dan.
30And this thing became a sin; the people walked as far as Dan to worship before one of the calves.
