1 Samuel 2:31-33

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³¹ See, a time is coming when I will cut off your strength and the strength of your ancestor’s family, so that no one in your family will live to old age. ³² Then in distress you will look with greedy eye^[a] on all the prosperity that shall be bestowed upon Israel; and no one in your family shall ever live to old age. ³³ The only one of you whom I shall not cut off from my altar shall be spared to weep out his^[b] eyes and grieve his^[c] heart; all the members of your household shall die by the sword.^[d]
