12:26And Jeroboam said in his heart: Now shall the kingdom return to the house of David,

27If this people go up to offer sacrifices in the house of the Lord at Jerusalem: and the heart of this people will turn to their lord Roboam the king of Juda, and they will kill me, and return to him.

28And finding out a device he made two golden calves, and said to them: Go you up no more to Jerusalem: Look your gods, O Israel, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.

29And he set the one in Bethel, and the other in Dan:

30And this thing became an occasion of sin: for the people went to adore the calf as far as Dan.

31And he made temples in the high places, and priests of the lowest of the people, who were not of the sons of Levi.

32And he appointed a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, after the manner of the feast that was celebrated in Juda. And going up to the altar, he did in like manner in Bethel, to sacrifice to the calves, which he had made$1 and he placed in Bethel priests of the high places, which he had made.

13:33After these words Jeroboam came not back from his evil way: but on the contrary he made of the meanest of the people priests of the high places: whoever would, he satisfied his hand, and he was made a priest of the high places.

34And for this cause did the house of Jeroboam sin, and was cut off and destroyed from the face of the earth.

106:6We have sinned with our fathers: we have acted unjustly, we have wrought sin.

7Our fathers understood not your wonders in Egypt: they remembered not the crowd of your mercies: And they provoked to wrath going up to the sea, even the Red Sea.

19They made also a calf in Horeb: and they adored the graven thing.

20And they changed their glory into the likeness of a calf that eateth grass.

21They forgot God, who saved them, who had done great things in Egypt,

22wonderful works in the land of Cham: terrible things in the Red Sea.

8:1In those days again, when there was a great crowd, and had nothing to eat; calling his disciples together, he says to them:

2I have compassion on the crowd, for look they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat.

3And if I shall send them away fasting to their home, they will faint in the way; for some of them came from afar off.

4And his disciples answered him: From whence can any one fill them here with bread in the wilderness?

5And he asked them: How many bread have you? Who said: Seven.

6And taking the seven bread, giving thanks, he broke, and gave to his disciples for to set before them; and they set them before the people.

7And they had a few little fishes; and he blessed them, and commanded them to be set before them.

8And they did eat and were satisfied; and they took up that which was left of the fragments, seven baskets.

9And those who had eaten were about four thousand; and he sent them away.

10And immediately going up into a ship with his disciples, he came into the parts of Dalmanutha.
