25 And Jeroboam built Shechem in the hill country of Ephraim and dwelt there. And he went out from there and built Penuel. 26 And Jeroboam said in his heart, “Now the kingdom may return to the house of David. 27 If this people goes up to offer sacrifices in the house of YHWH at Jerusalem, the heart of this people will turn back to their lord, unto Rehoboam king of Judah, and they will kill me and go back to Rehoboam king of Judah.” 1 Kings 12:25-27, Berean Literal Bible.
