Text -- 1 Samuel 2:30-36 (NET)
Strongs On/Off
Context
2:30 Therefore the Lord , the God of Israel , says , ‘I really did say that your house and your ancestor’s house would serve me forever .’ But now the Lord says , ‘May it never be ! For I will honor those who honor me, but those who despise me will be cursed !
2:31 In fact, days are coming when I will remove your strength and the strength of your father’s house . There will not be an old man in your house !
2:32 You will see trouble in my dwelling place ! Israel will experience blessings , but there will not be an old man in your house for all time .
2:33 Any one of you that I do not cut off from my altar , I will cause your eyes to fail and will cause you grief . All of those born to your family will die in the prime of life .
2:34 This will be a confirming sign for you that will be fulfilled through your two sons , Hophni and Phinehas : in a single day they both will die !
2:35 Then I will raise up for myself a faithful priest . He will do what is in my heart and soul . I will build for him a secure dynasty and he will serve my chosen one for all time .
2:36 Everyone who remains in your house will come to bow before him for a little money and for a scrap of bread . Each will say , ‘Assign me to a priestly task so I can eat a scrap of bread .’”
