1Samuel:2:11-16

*
And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house .
And the child did minister unto the LORD before Eli the priest .
*
Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial b @
liya #
al #;
they knew not the LORD .
*
And the priests custom with the people was ,
that ,
when any man offered sacrifice ,
the priests servant came ,
while the flesh was in seething ,
with a fleshhook of three teeth in his hand ;
*
And he struck it into the pan ,
or kettle ,
or caldron ,
or pot ;
all that the fleshhook brought up the priest took for himself .
So they did in Shiloh unto all the Israelites that came thither .
*
Also before they burnt the fat ,
the priests servant came ,
and said to the man that sacrificed ,
Give flesh to roast for the priest ;
for he will not have sodden flesh of thee ,
but raw .
*
And if any man said unto him ,
Let them not fail to burn the fat presently ,
and then take as much as thy soul desireth ;
then he would answer him ,
Nay ;
but thou shalt give it me now :
and if not ,
I will take it by force .
