1 Samuel 2:29-30

29Why do you 1kick at My sacrifice and at My offering 2which I have commanded in My 3dwelling, and 4honor your sons above Me, by making yourselves fat with the 5choicest of every offering of My people Israel?’

30Therefore the Lord God of Israel declares, ‘6I did indeed say that your house and the house of your father should walk before Me forever’; but now the Lord declares, ‘Far be it from Me--for 7those who honor Me I will honor, and those 8who despise Me will be lightly esteemed.
