A Prophet Condemns the Altar at Bethel

13 ^1-2 (A) One day, Jeroboam was standing at the altar in Bethel, ready to make an offering. Suddenly one of God's prophets^[a] arrived from Judah and shouted:

The Lord sent me with a message about this altar. A child named Josiah will be born into David's family. He will sacrifice on this altar the priests who make offerings here, and human bones will be burned on it.
