And you will see your rival in the temple, amid all the prosperity of Israel. And there will not be an old man in your house for all days.
Yet truly, I will not entirely take away a man of you from my altar, but such that your eyes may fail, and your soul may melt away, and a great part of your house may die out, as it pertains to the state of men.
But this will be a sign to you, which will happen to your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas: on one day they both will die.

Then this will be in the future, that whoever will have remained of your house, he will approach so that he may pray on his behalf. And he will offer a coin of silver, and a twist of bread. And he will say: ‘Permit me, I beg you, one part of the priestly office, so that I may eat a mouthful of bread.’ ”
