1 Samuel 2:30 Easy-to-Read Version (ERV) 30 “The Lord, the God of Israel, promised that your father’s family would serve him forever. But now the Lord says, ‘That will never be! I(GOD) will honor people who honor me(GOD), but bad things will happen to those who refuse to respect me(GOD). Genesis 12:3 Amplified Bible (AMP) 3 And I will bless (do good for, benefit) those who bless you, And I will curse [that is, subject to My wrath and judgment] the one who curses (despises, dishonors, has contempt for) you. And in you all the families (nations) of the earth will be blessed.”
