11. Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. The child served the Lord before Eli the priest.
12. Now the sons of Eli were wicked men. They didn’t know the Lord.
13. The custom of the priests with the people was that when anyone offered a sacrifice, the priest’s servant came while the meat was boiling, with a fork of three teeth in his hand;
14. and he stabbed it into the pan, or kettle, or cauldron, or pot. The priest took all that the fork brought up for himself. They did this to all the Israelites who came there to Shiloh.
