32. You shall witness, like a disappointed rival, all the benefits enjoyed by Israel, but no member of your household shall ever grow old.
33. I will leave you one man at my altar to wear out his eyes and waste his strength, but the rest of your family shall die by the sword.
34. This is a sign for you—what happens to your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas. Both of them will die on the same day.
35. I will choose a faithful priest who shall do what I have in heart and mind. I will establish a lasting house for him and he shall serve in the presence of my anointed forever.
36. Then whoever is left of your family will grovel before him for a piece of silver or a loaf of bread, saying: Please assign me a priestly function, that I may have a crust of bread to eat.”
