2 Chronicles 13:7-9
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
7 And there gathered to him worthless men, base fellows, who strengthened themselves against Rehoboam son of Solomon when Rehoboam was young [as king], irresolute, and inexperienced and did not withstand them with firmness and strength.
8 And now you think to withstand the kingdom of the Lord which is in the hands of the sons of David, because you are a great multitude and you have with you the golden calves which Jeroboam made for you for gods.
9 Have you not driven out the priests of the Lord, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and made priests for yourselves like the peoples of other lands? So whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bull and seven rams may be a priest of idols that are not gods.

2 Chronicles 13:7-9
New International Version
7 Some worthless scoundrels(A) gathered around him and opposed Rehoboam son of Solomon when he was young and indecisive(B) and not strong enough to resist them.
8 “And now you plan to resist the kingdom of the Lord, which is in the hands of David’s descendants.(C) You are indeed a vast army and have with you(D) the golden calves(E) that Jeroboam made to be your gods. 9 But didn’t you drive out the priests(F) of the Lord,(G) the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and make priests of your own as the peoples of other lands do? Whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bull(H) and seven rams(I) may become a priest of what are not gods.(J)
