Living Bible

New International Version
33 Even after this, Jeroboam did not change his evil ways,(A) but once more appointed priests for the high places from all sorts(B) of people. Anyone who wanted to become a priest he consecrated for the high places. 34 This was the sin(C) of the house of Jeroboam that led to its downfall and to its destruction(D) from the face of the earth.
