32 For surely, the thing which he proclaimed by the word of Yahweh against the altar which is in Bethel will happen, as it will against all the houses of the high places which are in the cities of Samaria.”
Jeroboam Continues in His Sin
33 After this event, Jeroboam did not turn from his evil way, but he returned and again made priests for the high places of people from all walks of life.[a] He filled his hand with all his desire and became one of the priests of the high places himself. 34 This matter became sin in the house of Jeroboam, to make it disappear and to destroy it from the surface of the earth.

New International Version
32 For the message he declared by the word of the Lord against the altar in Bethel and against all the shrines on the high places(A) in the towns of Samaria(B) will certainly come true.”(C)
33 Even after this, Jeroboam did not change his evil ways,(D) but once more appointed priests for the high places from all sorts(E) of people. Anyone who wanted to become a priest he consecrated for the high places. 34 This was the sin(F) of the house of Jeroboam that led to its downfall and to its destruction(G) from the face of the earth.
