And he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the fleshhook brought up the priest took for himself. So they did in Shiloh unto all the Israelites that came thither.

Verse 14 is found in chapter 2 of 1 Samuel. Eli’s sons are described through a deliberate contrast with Samuel. While Samuel will be devoted to the Lord’s service, Hophni and Phinehas use their priestly position to wrongfully take the offerings. The problem is not merely administrative misconduct, but corruption of worship: those who should represent God’s holiness despise the regulations governing sacrifice. The description of their conduct as a serious sin establishes early that Eli’s priestly household is under judgment and that religious office does not automatically guarantee faithfulness.

und stieß in den Tiegel oder Kessel oder Pfanne oder Topf; was er mit der Gabel hervorzog, das nahm der Priester davon. Also taten sie dem ganzen Israel, die dahinkamen zu Silo.
Y hería con él en la caldera, o en la olla, o en el caldero, o en el pote; y todo lo que sacaba el garfio, el sacerdote lo tomaba para si. De esta manera hacían a todo Israelita que venía a Silo.
Lo metía en el perol, en la olla, en el caldero o en la cazuela, y el sacerdote tomaba para sí todo lo que sacaba el tenedor. Así hacían con todos los israelitas que llegaban allí a Silo.
il piquait dans la chaudière, dans le chaudron, dans la marmite, ou dans le pot; et tout ce que la fourchette amenait, le sacrificateur le prenait pour lui. C'est ainsi qu'ils agissaient à l'égard de tous ceux d'Israël qui venaient là à Silo.
E, fittala nella caldaia, o nel paiuolo, o nella pentola, o nella pignatta, tutto ciò che la forcella traeva fuori, il sacerdote lo prendeva per sè. Così facevano a tutti gl’Israeliti che venivano là in Silo.
E enfiava-o na caldeira, ou na panela, ou no caldeirão, ou na marmita; e tudo quanto o garfo tirava, o sacerdote tomava para si; assim faziam a todo o Israel que ia ali a Siló.
將叉子往盆裏,或鍋裏,或釜裏,或壺裏一插,插上來的肉,祭司都拿了去。他們對所有上到 示羅 的 以色列 人都這樣做。
