1 Samuel 2:26-28
International Standard Version
26 But the boy Samuel continued to grow both physically and in favor with the Lord and the people.
27 A man of God came to Eli, saying to him,[a] “This is what the Lord says: ‘When they were in Egypt and slaves[b] to the house of Pharaoh, did I not reveal[c] to the family of your ancestor Aaron[d] 28 that I had chosen him[e] out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to offer up burnt offerings on my altar, burn incense, and carry[f] the ephod in my presence? And did I not give to your ancestors’ family all the Israeli fire-offerings?
