13 Now, this was how the priests dealt with the people who were offering sacrifices: While the meat was boiling, the priest's servant would come with a three-pronged fork in his hand. 14 Then he would stick it into the pot, kettle, cauldron, or pan. Whatever the fork brought up [from the pot] belonged to the priest. This is what the priests did in Shiloh to all the people of Israel who came there [to sacrifice]. 15 But [in the case of Eli's sons,] even before the people burned the fat, their servants would come and say to the man who was sacrificing, |Give the meat to the priest to roast. He doesn't want boiled meat from you. He wants it raw.| 1 Samuel 2:13-15, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
