1 Samuel 2:22-26 - Eli Rebukes His Evil Sons

22 Eli was very old. He heard everything his sons did to Israel. He heard how they slept with the women who served at the door of the tabernacle of meeting. 23 So he said to them: Why do you do such things? I hear of your evil dealings by all the people. 24 No, my sons. It is not a good report that I hear. You make Jehovah's people transgress. 25 If one man sins against another, God will judge him. But if a man sins against Jehovah, who will intercede for him? But his sons did not listen to the voice of their father. Jehovah desired to put them to death. 26 The child Samuel grew both in stature and in goodness with Jehovah and also with men.
