Eli Rebukes His Sons

22 Now Eli was very old; and he heard (A)all that his sons were doing to all Israel, and how they lay with (B)the women who served at the doorway of the tent of meeting. 23 He said to them, “Why do you do such things, the evil things that I hear from all these people? 24 No, my sons; for the report is not good (C)which I hear (a)the Lord’s people circulating.
