updv 1Samuel:2:12-26
updv@1Samuel:2:12 @ Now the sons of Eli were base men; they didn't know Yahweh.
updv@1Samuel:2:13 @ And the custom of the priests with the people was that, when any man offered a sacrifice, the priest's attendant came, while the flesh was boiling, with a flesh-hook of three teeth in his hand;
updv@1Samuel:2:14 @ and he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or cauldron, or pot; all that the flesh-hook brought up the priest took with it. So they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites that came there.
updv@1Samuel:2:15 @ Yes, before they burnt the fat, the priest's attendant came, and said to the man who sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest; for he will not have boiled flesh of you, but raw.
updv@1Samuel:2:16 @ And if the man said to him, They will surely burn the fat first, and then take as much as your soul desires; then he would say, No, but you will give it to me now: and if not, I will take it by force.
updv@1Samuel:2:17 @ And the sin of the young men was very great before Yahweh; for they despised the offering of Yahweh.
updv@1Samuel:2:18 @ But Samuel ministered before Yahweh, being a lad, girded with a linen ephod.
updv@1Samuel:2:19 @ Moreover his mother made him a little robe, and brought it to him from year to year, when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.
updv@1Samuel:2:20 @ And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, Yahweh give you [Elkanah] seed of this woman in place of the petition which he asked of Yahweh. And they went to their own home.
updv@1Samuel:2:21 @ And Yahweh visited Hannah, and she became pregnant, and gave birth to three sons and two daughters. And the lad Samuel grew before Yahweh.
updv@1Samuel:2:22 @ Now Eli was very old; and he heard all that his sons did to all Israel, and how that they lay with the women who served at the door of the tent of meeting.
updv@1Samuel:2:23 @ And he said to them, Why do you(note:){+}(:note) do such things? For I hear of your{+} evil dealings from all this people.
updv@1Samuel:2:24 @ No, my sons; for the report that I hear is not good: you(note:){+}(:note) make Yahweh's people to transgress.
updv@1Samuel:2:25 @ If a man sins against another man, God will judge him; but if a man sins against Yahweh, who will entreat for him? Notwithstanding, they didn't listen to the voice of their father, because Yahweh was minded to slay them.
updv@1Samuel:2:26 @ And the lad Samuel grew on, and increased in favor both with Yahweh, and also with men.
