1 Samuel 2:30-35

30Because of what you have done, the Lord, Israel's God, says this to you: “I promised your family and your ancestors that they would serve me as priests for ever.” But now the Lord says, “That will never happen! I will give honour to people who respect me. But I will curse people who insult me.

31So you and your family will soon come to an end. No one in your family will live to become old men.

32You will see how trouble comes to my home here. Good things will happen to the Israelite people, but there will never be an old man in your family.

33One of your descendants may continue to serve me as a priest. But he will be very sad and his eyes will become weak. Anyone who is born in your family will die when they are young.

34This will show you that what I have said is true: Your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, will both die on the same day.

35I will choose another priest to serve me. He will be faithful. He will do everything that I want him to do. I will give him a strong family and he will serve my chosen king for ever.
