2 Chronicles 13:8-10
Names of God Bible

2 Chronicles 13:8-10
New International Version
8 “And now you plan to resist the kingdom of the Lord, which is in the hands of David’s descendants.(A) You are indeed a vast army and have with you(B) the golden calves(C) that Jeroboam made to be your gods. 9 But didn’t you drive out the priests(D) of the Lord,(E) 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(F) and seven rams(G) may become a priest of what are not gods.(H)
10 “As for us, the Lord is our God, and we have not forsaken him. The priests who serve the Lord are sons of Aaron, and the Levites assist them.
