1 Kings 12:27-28

[27] If this people  go up  to do  sacrifice  in the house  of the LORD  at Jerusalem,  then shall the heart  of this people  turn again  unto their lord,  even unto Rehoboam  king  of Judah,  and they shall kill  me, and go again  to Rehoboam  king  of Judah.  [28] Whereupon the king  took counsel,  and made  two  calves  of gold,  and said  unto them, It is too much  for you to go up  to Jerusalem:  behold thy gods,  O Israel,  which brought thee up  out of the land  of Egypt.
