Yahweh Rebukes Eli
27 Now a man of God came to Eli and said to him: “Thus says Yahweh: ‘Did I not clearly reveal myself to the house of your ancestor[fn] when they were in Egypt under the house of Pharaoh? 28 And I chose him from all the tribes of Israel to be a priest to me, to go up to my altar, to burn incense, and to bear an ephod before me. I gave to the house of your ancestor[fn] all the offerings made by fire by theIsraelites.[fn] 29 Why do you despise my sacrifice and my offering which I commanded for my dwelling place, while you honored your sons more than me by making yourselves fat from the best of all the offerings of my people Israel? 30 Therefore,’ declares[fn] Yahweh the God of Israel, ‘though I solemnly said that your house and the house of your ancestor[fn] would walk before me forever, but now,’declares[fn] Yahweh, ‘far be it from me, for those who honor me I will honor, but those who despise me, I will treat with contempt! 31 Look, days are coming when I will cut off your strength[fn] and thestrength[fn] of the house of your ancestor[fn]so that no one in your house will live to old age.[fn] 32 You will look at the distress of my dwelling place, despite all the good caused for Israel, but there will never be an old man in your household forever![fn] 33 The only one I will not cut off from my altar is you.[fn]Rather, to cause your eyes to fail and to cause your soul to grieve, all the members of your household[fn] will dieas men.[fn] 34 This is the sign for you that will come regarding your two sons Hophni and Phinehas: they will both die on the same day! 35 But I will raise up for myself a reliable[fn] priest; he will do just according to whatis in my heart and in my soul. I will build for him a lasting[fn] house and he will walk continually before my anointed oneforever.[fn] 36 All the remainder of your household will come to bow down before[fn] him for a bit of silver or a loaf of bread and will say, “Please assign me to one of thepriestly offices[fn] so that I can eat a morsel of bread.” ’ ”
