and did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to go up to my altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? and did I give to the house of your father all the offerings of the children of Israel made by fire?
Therefore I am giving him back to the Lord; as long as he lives he shall be the Lord's. And he worshiped the Lord there ( 1 Samuel 1:28 ).
