1 Samuel 2:27-30

27Then 1a manH376 of GodH430 cameH935 to EliH5941 and saidH559 to him, “ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068, ‘2Did I not indeedH1540 revealH1540 Myself to the houseH1004 of your fatherH1 when they were in EgyptH4714 in bondage to Pharaoh’sH6547 houseH1004?

283Did I not chooseH977 them from allH3605 the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 to be My priestsH3548, to goH5927 up to My altarH4196, to burnH6999 incenseH7004, to carryH5375 an ephodH646 beforeH6440 Me; and did I not 4giveH5414 to the houseH1004 of your fatherH1 allH3605 the fireH801 offerings of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478?

29WhyH4100 do you 5kickH1163 at My sacrificeH2077 and at My offeringH4503 6whichH834 I have commandedH6680 in My 7dwellingH4583, and 8honorH3513 your sonsH1121 aboveH4480 Me, by makingH1254 yourselves fatH1254 with the 9choicestH7225 of everyH3605 offeringH4503 of My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478?’

30ThereforeH3651 the LordH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 declaresH5002, ‘10I did indeedH559 sayH559 that your houseH1004 and the houseH1004 of your fatherH1 should walkH1980 beforeH6440 Me foreverH5704H5769’; but nowH6258 the LordH3068 declaresH5002, ‘FarH2486 be it from Me--for 11those who honorH3513 Me I will honorH3513, and those 12who despiseH959 Me will be lightlyH7043 esteemedH7043.
