1 Samuel 2:30-34 ▼

30 Therefore the LORD, the God of Israel, says, |I said indeed 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 Look, the days come, that I will cut off your descendants, and the descendants of your father's house, that there shall not be an old man in your house.

32 And you will see distress in the dwelling place, in all that he does good with Israel. And there will not be an old man in your house all the days.

33 And the man of yours I do not cut off from my altar will be to cause his eyes to fail and to grieve his soul, and all the increase of your house will die by the sword of men.

34 |'This shall be the sign to you, that shall come on your two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas: in one day they shall both die.
