1 Samuel 2:30-32

30“Therefore, the Lord, the God of Israel, says: I promised that your branch of the tribe of Levi would always be my priests. But I will honor those who honor me, and I will despise those who think lightly of me.

31The time is coming when I will put an end to your family, so it will no longer serve as my priests. All the members of your family will die before their time. None will reach old age.

32You will watch with envy as I pour out prosperity on the people of Israel. But no members of your family will ever live out their days.
