1 Samuel 2:30-36
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.’”
1 Samuel 3:12-14
3:12 On that day I will carry out
against Eli everything that I spoke about his house – from start to finish!
3:13 You
should tell him that I am about to judge his house forever because of
the sin that he knew about. For his sons were cursing God,
and he did not rebuke them.
3:14 Therefore I swore an oath to the house of Eli, ‘The sin of the house of Eli can never be forgiven by sacrifice or by grain offering.’”
