@1Samuel:2:12 @ And the sons of Eli were worthless men: they knew not the Lord.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Samuel:2:13 @ And the custom of the priests with the people was, that, when any man offered a sacrifice, the priests servant came, while was seething the flesh, with a fork with three teeth in his hand;
sf_leeser_rev1@1Samuel:2:14 @ And he struck it into the pan, or the kettle, or the caldron, or the pot; all that the fork brought up the priest took away with it. So did they unto all the Israelites that came thither, to Shiloh.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Samuel:2:15 @ Even before they had yet burnt the fat, the priests servant would come, and say to the man that sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest; for he will not take from thee sodden flesh, but raw.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Samuel:2:16 @ And if the man said unto him, They will surely presently burn the fat, and then take whatever thy soul may long for: then would he say, No; but thou shalt give it me now; and if not, I will take it by force.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Samuel:2:17 @ And the sin of the young men was very great before the Lord; for the men despised the offering of the Lord.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Samuel:2:18 @ But Samuel was ministering before the Lord, being a lad, girded with a linen ephod.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Samuel:2:19 @ Moreover his mother used to make him a little overcoat, and brought it to him from year to year, when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Samuel:2:20 @ And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, May the Lord give thee seed from this woman instead of the loan who is lent to the Lord. And they went back unto his place.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Samuel:2:21 @ And truly the Lord visited Hannah, and she conceived, and bore three sons and two daughters. And the lad Samuel grew up before the Lord.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Samuel:2:22 @ Now Eli was very old, and heard all that his sons were in the habit of doing unto all Israel; and how they would lie with the women that assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Samuel:2:23 @ And he said unto them, Why will ye do such things? for I hear of your evil dealings from all this people.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Samuel:2:24 @ No, my sons; for the report that I hear is not good, which the Lords people spread abroad.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Samuel:2:25 @ If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge him; but if against the Lord a man should sin, who shall pray for him? Nevertheless would they not hearken unto the voice of their father, because the Lord desired to slay them.
sf_leeser_rev1@1Samuel:2:26 @ And the lad Samuel was constantly growing and increasing in favor both with the Lord, and also with men.
