I’m getting ready to do something in Israel that is going to shake everyone up and get their attention. The time has come for me to bring down on Eli’s family everything I warned him of, every last word of it. I’m letting him know that the time’s up. I’m bringing judgment on his family for good.

This is my sentence on the family of Eli: The evil of Eli’s family can never be wiped out by sacrifice or offering.”
