1 Samuel 2:30-32

New American Standard Bible 1995

³⁰ Therefore the Lord God of Israel declares, ‘^(A)I did indeed say that your house and the house of your father should walk before Me forever’; but now the Lord declares, ‘Far be it from Me—for ^(B)those who honor Me I will honor, and those ^(C)who despise Me will be lightly esteemed. ³¹ Behold, ^(D)the days are coming when I will break your ^[a]strength and the ^[b]strength of your father’s house so that there will not be an old man in your house. ³² You will see ^(E)the distress of My dwelling, in spite of all the good that ^[c]I do for Israel; and an ^(F)old man will not be in your house forever.
