  • 1 Sam 2:27-36 : 27 And there came a man of God to Eli and said to him, Thus says the LORD, Did I not plainly appear to the house of your father, when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh's house? 28 And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to offer upon my altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? and did I give to the house of your father all the offerings made by fire of the children of Israel? 29 Why do you scorn my sacrifice and my offering, which I have commanded in my habitation; and honor your sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the best of all the offerings of Israel my people? 30 Therefore the LORD God of Israel says, I did indeed say that your house, and the house of your father, should walk before me forever: but now the LORD says, Be it far from me; for those who honor me I will honor, and those who despise me shall be lightly esteemed. 31 Behold, the days are coming, that I will cut off your strength, and the strength of your father's house, so that there will not be an old man in your house. 32 And you shall see an enemy in my habitation, in all the wealth which God shall give Israel: and there shall not be an old man in your house forever. 33 And any of yours whom I do not cut off from my altar shall bring sorrow to your eyes and grief to your heart: and all the increase of your house shall die in the prime of their life. 34 And this shall be a sign to you, that shall come upon your two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas; they shall both die on the same day. 35 And I will raise up for myself a faithful priest, that shall do according to what is in my heart and in my mind: and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before my anointed forever. 36 And it shall come to pass, that everyone who is left in your house shall come and bow down to him for a piece of silver and a morsel of bread, and shall say, Please put me into one of the priests' offices, that I may eat a piece of bread.
