1 Samuel 2:30-35

30ThereforeH3651, the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, declaresH5002:

‘I did indeedH559 sayH559 that your houseH1004and the houseH1004 of your fatherH1would walkH1980 before MeH6440 foreverH5704H5769.
But nowH6258 the LORDH3068 declaresH5002:Far be itH2486 from Me!ForH3588 I will honorH3513 those who honor MeH3513,but those who despise MeH959 will be disdainedH7043.

31BeholdH2009, the daysH3117 are comingH935 when I will cut offH1438 your strengthH2220 and the strengthH2220 of your father’sH1 houseH1004, so that no one in itH1004 will reachH1961 old ageH2205. 32You will seeH5027 distressH6862 in My dwelling placeH4583. Despite allH3605 thatH834 is goodH3190 in IsraelH3478, no oneH3808 in your houseH1004 will ever againH3605H3117 reachH1961 old ageH2205. 33And every oneH376 of you that I do notH3808 cut offH3772 fromH5973 My altarH4196, I will cause your eyesH5869 to failH3615 and your heartH5315 to grieveH109.1 AllH3605 your descendantsH4768H10042 will dieH4191 by the sword of menH582.3

34And thisH2088 signH226 shall comeH935 to you concerningH413 your twoH8147 sonsH1121H413 HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372: They will bothH8147 dieH4191 on the sameH259 dayH3117.

35Then I will raise upH6965 for Myself a faithfulH539 priestH3548. He will doH6213 whateverH834 is in My heartH3824 and mindH5315. And I will buildH1129 for him an enduringH539 houseH1004, and he will walkH1980 beforeH6440 My anointed oneH4899 for all timeH3605H3117.
