你们不是驱逐耶和华的祭司亚伦的后裔和利未人吗？不是照着外邦人的恶俗为自己立祭司吗？无论何人牵一头公牛犊、七只公绵羊将自己分别出来，就可作虚无神明的祭司。

你们不是驱逐了耶和华的祭司，亚伦的子孙和利未人吗？你们不是像世上万民为自己立祭司吗？无论什么人牵来一头公牛犊和七只公绵羊，自己授圣职，就可以作那本不是神的祭司。

爾曹非逐耶和華之祭司、亞倫後裔、及利未人、為己立祭司、循異邦之例乎、凡人攜牡犢一、牡羊七而來、自為區別、則可為祭司、以奉虛無之神、

But didn’t you drive out the priests of the Lord, 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 and seven rams may become a priest of what are not gods.

But you drove out the priests of the Lord, the sons of Aaron. You also drove out the Levites. You appointed your own priests. That’s what the people of other nations do. Anyone can come and set himself apart. All he has to do is sacrifice a young bull and seven rams. Then he becomes a priest of gods that aren’t really gods at all!

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? Whoever comes for ordination with a young bull or seven rams becomes a priest of what are not gods.

But you have chased away the priests of the Lord( the descendants of Aaron) and the Levites, and you have appointed your own priests, just like the pagan nations. You let anyone become a priest these days! Whoever comes to be dedicated with a young bull and seven rams can become a priest of these so called gods of yours!

Didn’t you banish the priests of the LORD, the descendants of Aaron and the Levites, and make your own priests like the peoples of other lands do? Whoever comes to ordain himself with a young bull and seven rams may become a priest of what are not gods.

Have you not driven out the priests of the Lord, the sons of Aaron and the Levites, and made for yourselves priests like the peoples of other lands? Whoever comes to consecrate himself with a bull and seven rams, even he may become a priest of things that are not gods.

Have you not cast out the priests of the Lord, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and made for yourselves priests, like the peoples of other lands, so that whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bull and seven rams may be a priest of things that are not gods?

Have ye not driven out the priests of Jehovah, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and made you priests after the manner of the peoples of other lands? so that whosoever cometh to consecrate himself with a young bullock and seven rams, the same may be a priest of them that are no gods.

Didn’t you banish the priests of Yahweh, the descendants of Aaron and the Levites, and make your own priests like the peoples of other lands do? Whoever comes to ordain himself with a young bull and seven rams may become a priest of what are not gods.

Have ye not cast out the priests of the LORD, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and have made you priests after the manner of the nations of[ other] lands? so that whosoever cometh to consecrate himself with a young bullock and seven rams,[ the same] may be a priest of[ them that are] no gods.

But you banished the LORD’s priests, Aaron’s descendants, and the Levites, and appointed your own priests just as the surrounding nations do! Anyone who comes to consecrate himself with a young bull or seven rams becomes a priest of these fake gods!

Haven’t you driven out the priests of Yahweh, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and made priests for yourselves according to the ways of the peoples of other lands? Whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bull and seven rams may be a priest of those who are no gods.

利未人放弃他们的郊野和产业，来到犹大与耶路撒冷，因为耶罗波安和他的儿子拒绝他们，不许他们担任祭司事奉耶和华。耶罗波安为丘坛，为山羊鬼魔，为自己所造的牛犊设立祭司。

岂有一国换了它的神明吗？其实那不是神明！但我的百姓将他们的荣耀换了那无益的东西。

“你要这样照我一切所吩咐的，向亚伦和他儿子行授圣职礼七天。

摩西说：“今天你们要奉献自己来事奉耶和华，因为各人牺牲自己的儿子和弟兄，使耶和华今天赐福给你们。”

但从前不认识上帝的时候，你们是给那些本来不是上帝的神明作奴隶；

“你领亚伦和他儿子前来，并将圣衣、膏油，与赎罪祭的一头公牛、两只公绵羊、一筐无酵饼都一同带来；

你们看到，也听见这保罗不但在以弗所，也几乎在亚细亚全地，引诱迷惑了许多人，说：‘人手所做的不是神明。’

将列国的神像扔在火里，因为它们不是上帝，是人手所造的，是木头、石头，所以被灭绝了。

耶罗波安在一些丘坛建神殿，立不属利未人的平民百姓为祭司。耶罗波安定八月十五日为节期，像在犹大的节期一样，自己上坛献祭。他在伯特利这样做，向他所铸的牛犊献祭，又把他所立丘坛的祭司安置在伯特利。他在八月十五日，就是他自己心中所定的月份，在伯特利上到自己所造的祭坛；他为以色列人定了一个节期，亲自上坛烧香。

这事以后，耶罗波安仍不离开他的恶道，立平民百姓为丘坛的祭司；凡愿意的，他都分别为圣，立为丘坛的祭司。

那受膏接续他父亲担任圣职的祭司要赎罪，穿上细麻布衣服，就是圣衣，

金子做金器，银子做银器，并藉工匠的手做一切的工。今日有谁愿意将自己献给耶和华呢？”

因这牛犊是出于以色列，是匠人所造的，并不是上帝。撒玛利亚的牛犊必被打碎。

“这是你使他们分别为圣，作事奉我的祭司时要做的事：取一头公牛犊，两只无残疾的公绵羊，

他们祭祀鬼魔，而非上帝，是他们不认识的神明，是近来新兴的，是你们列祖所不畏惧的。

我怎能赦免你呢？你的儿女离弃我，又指着那不是上帝的起誓。我使他们饱足，他们就行奸淫，居住在娼妓家里。
