11 Then the Lord said to Samuel, “Behold, I am about to do a thing in Israel at which the two ^vears of everyone who hears it will tingle. 12 On that day I will fulfill against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house, from beginning to end. 13 And I declare to him that I am about to punish his house forever, for the iniquity that he knew, because his sons were blaspheming God,¹ and he did not restrain them. 14 Therefore I swear to the house of Eli that ^wthe iniquity of Eli’s house shall not be atoned for by sacrifice or offering forever.”
