And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to offer upon mine altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? and did I give unto the house of thy father all the offerings made by fire of the children of Israel?
¿No lo escogí de todas las tribus de Israel para que fuera mi sacerdote, para ofrecer sacrificios en mi altar, para quemar incienso y para llevar el efod sagrado en mi presencia? ¿Y no le di a la familia de tu padre todas las ofrendas quemadas que los israelitas traían?
Dios había escogido y bendecido abundantemente a la familia sacerdotal de Elí con privilegios sagrados y provisiones.
