1 Samuel 2:30-35

30ThereforeH3651 the LordH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 declaresH5002, ‘1I 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 2those who honorH3513 Me I will honorH3513, and those 3who despiseH959 Me will beH7043 insignificantH7043.

31BeholdH2009, 4the daysH3117 are comingH935 when I will eliminateH1438 your 5strengthH2220 and the 6strengthH2220 of your father’sH1 houseH1004, soH4480 thatH4480 there will notH4480 be an oldH2205 manH2205 in your houseH1004.

32And you will lookH5027 at 7the distressH6862 of My dwellingH4583, in spite of allH3605 the goodH3190 that 8I doH3190 for IsraelH3478; and there will neverH3808H3605H3117 be an 9oldH2205 manH2205 in your houseH1004.

33Yet I will not cutH3772 offH3772 everyH376 manH376 of yours from My altarH4196, 10so that your eyesH5869 will failH3615 from weeping and your soulH5315 grieveH109, and allH3605 the 11increaseH4768 of your houseH1004 will dieH4191 12in the primeH376 of lifeH376.

34And thisH2088 will be 13the signH226 to you whichH834 will comeH935 inH413 regardH413 toH413 your twoH8147 sonsH1121, HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372: 14on the sameH259 dayH3117 bothH8147 of them will dieH4191.

35But 15I will raiseH6965 upH6965 for Myself a faithfulH539 priestH3548 who will doH6213 according to whatH834 is in My heartH3824 and My soulH5315; and 16I will buildH1129 him an enduringH539 houseH1004, and he will walkH1980 beforeH6440 17My anointedH4899 alwaysH3605H3117.
