Melachim Alef 13:33-34

Orthodox Jewish Bible

³³ After this thing Yarov‘am returned not from his derech har’ah, but installed again of the lowest of the people as kohanim of the high places; whosoever desired, he filled hands of [i.e., ordained] him, and he became one of the kohanim of the [idolatrous] high places [See Lv 7:37 and 8:25-36].

³⁴ And this thing became chattat (sin) unto the Bais Yarov`am, even to annihilate it, and to destroy it from off the face of ha’adamah.
