1 Samuel 2:31-33
Revised Standard Version
31 Behold, the days are coming, when I will cut off your strength and the strength of your father’s house, so that there will not be an old man in your house. 32 Then in distress you will look with envious eye on all the prosperity which shall be bestowed upon Israel; and there shall not be an old man in your house for ever. 33 The man of you whom I shall not cut off from my altar shall be spared to weep out his[a] eyes and grieve his[b] heart; and all the increase of your house shall die by the sword of men.[c]
