1 Samuel 2:27-30

27And there cameH935 a manH376 of 1GodH430 to EliH5941 and saidH559 to him, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah: Did I plainly revealH1540 myself to the houseH1004 of thy fatherH1 when they wereH1961 in EgyptH4714, in Pharaoh's houseH1004,

28and chooseH977 him out of all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, to be my priestH3548, to offer upon mine altarH4196, to burn incenseH7004, to wear the ephodH646 before me? and I gaveH5414 unto the houseH1004 of thy fatherH1 all the offeringsH801 by fireH801 of the children of IsraelH3478.

29Wherefore do ye trample upon my sacrificeH2077 and upon mine oblation which I have commandedH6680 [in my] habitationH4583? And thou honourest thy sonsH1121 above me, to makeH3513 yourselves fat with the primest of all the oblations of IsraelH3478 my peopleH5971.

30Wherefore Jehovah the 2GodH430 of IsraelH3478 saith, I saidH559 indeed, Thy houseH1004 and the houseH1004 of thy fatherH1 should walkH1980 before me for everH5769. But nowH6258 Jehovah saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despiseH959 me shall be lightly esteemed.
