1 Samuel 2:27-34
27Then 1a manH376 of GodH430 cameH935 to EliH5941 and saidH559 to him, “ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 saysH559: ‘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 upH5927 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 are you 56showingH1163 contemptH1163 for My sacrificeH2077 and My offeringH4503 7whichH834 I have commandedH6680 for My 8dwellingH4583, and why are you 9honoringH3513 your sonsH1121 aboveH4480 Me, by makingH1254 yourselves fatH1254 with the 10choicestH7225 of everyH3605 offeringH4503 of My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478?’
30ThereforeH3651 the LordH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 declaresH5002, ‘11I did indeedH559 sayH559 that your houseH1004 and the houseH1004 of your fatherH1 was to walkH1980 beforeH6440 Me foreverH5704H5769’; but nowH6258 the LordH3068 declaresH5002, ‘FarH2486 be it from Me--for 12those who honorH3513 Me I will honorH3513, and those 13who despiseH959 Me will beH7043 insignificantH7043.
31BeholdH2009, 14the daysH3117 are comingH935 when I will eliminateH1438 your 15strengthH2220 and the 16strengthH2220 of your father’sH1 houseH1004, soH4480 thatH4480 there will notH4480 be an oldH2205 manH2205 in your houseH1004.
32And you will lookH5027 at 17the distressH6862 of My dwellingH4583, in spite of allH3605 the goodH3190 that 18I doH3190 for IsraelH3478; and there will neverH3808H3605H3117 be an 19oldH2205 manH2205 in your houseH1004.
33Yet I will not cutH3772 offH3772 everyH376 manH376 of yours from My altarH4196, 20so that your eyesH5869 will failH3615 from weeping and your soulH5315 grieveH109, and allH3605 the 21increaseH4768 of your houseH1004 will dieH4191 22in the primeH376 of lifeH376.
34And thisH2088 will be 23the signH226 to you whichH834 will comeH935 inH413 regardH413 toH413 your twoH8147 sonsH1121, HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372: 24on the sameH259 dayH3117 bothH8147 of them will dieH4191.
