1 Samuel 2:12-14

EasyEnglish Bible

Eli's wicked sons

¹² Eli's sons were wicked men. They did not respect the Lord. ¹³ They did not do what the priests should do.

People brought sacrifices to offer to the Lord at Shiloh. When the meat was still boiling in a pot, a servant of the priest would come. He would bring a fork that had three points. ¹⁴ He then pushed the fork into the pot. The priest took for himself any meat that came out on the fork. The priests did that to all the Israelites when they came to Shiloh to offer sacrifices.
