1 Samuel 2:31-36
31BeholdH2009, 1the daysH3117 are comingH935 when I will breakH1438 your 2strengthH2220 and the 3strengthH2220 of your father’sH1 houseH1004 soH4480 that there will not be an oldH2205 manH2205 in your houseH1004.
32You will seeH5027 4the distressH6862 of My dwellingH4583, in spite of allH3605 the goodH3190 that 5I doH3190 for IsraelH3478; and an 6oldH2205 manH2205 will not be in your houseH1004 foreverH3605H3117.
33Yet I will not cutH3772 offH3772 everyH376 manH376 of yours from My altarH4196 7so that your eyesH5869 will failH3615 from weeping and your soulH5315 grieveH109, and allH3605 the increaseH4768 of your houseH1004 will dieH4191 8in the primeH376 of lifeH582.
34ThisH2088 will be 9the signH226 to you whichH834 will comeH935 concerningH413 your twoH8147 sonsH1121, HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372: 10on the sameH259 dayH3117 bothH8147 of them will dieH4191.
35But 11I will raiseH6965 up for Myself a faithfulH539 priestH3548 who will doH6213 according to whatH834 is in My heartH3824 and in My soulH5315; and 12I will buildH1129 him an enduringH539 houseH1004, and he will walkH1980 beforeH6440 13My anointedH4899 alwaysH3605H3117.
36EveryoneH3605 who is leftH3498 in your houseH1004 will comeH935 and bowH7812 downH7812 to him for a 14pieceH95 of silverH3701 or a loafH3603 of breadH3899 and sayH559, “PleaseH4994 15assignH5596 me to oneH259 of the priest’sH3550 officesH3550 so that I may eatH398 a pieceH6595 of breadH3899.”’”
