1 Samuel 2:26 in Context — 1 Samuel 2

24 No, hijos míos; porque no es buena fama la que yo oigo: que hacéis pecar al pueblo de Jehová.

25 Si pecare el hombre contra el hombre, los jueces le juzgarán; mas si alguno pecare contra Jehová, ¿quién rogará por él? Mas ellos no oyeron la voz de su padre, porque Jehová los quería matar.

26 Y el joven Samuel iba creciendo, y adelantando delante de Dios y delante de los hombres.

27 Y vino un varón de Dios á Eli, y díjole: Así ha dicho Jehová: ¿No me manifesté yo claramente á la casa de tu padre, cuando estaban en Egipto en casa de Faraón?

28 Y yo le escogí por mi sacerdote entre todas las tribus de Israel, para que ofreciese sobre mi altar, y quemase perfume, y trajese ephod delante de mí; y dí á la casa de tu padre todas las ofrendas de los hijos de Israel.
