32Jeroboam made a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, like the feast that was in Judah, and he went up to the altar. So he did in Bethel, sacrificing to the calves that he had made; and he installed in Bethel the priests of the high places that he had made.

33And he went up to the altar that he had made in Bethel on the fifteenth day in the eighth month, in the month that he had devised from his own heart, and he made a feast for the sons of Israel; and he went up to the altar to burn incense.
