1 Samuel 2:22-25

New King James Version

Prophecy Against Eli’s Household

²² Now Eli was very old; and he heard everything his sons did to all Israel, ^[a]and how they lay with ^(A)the women who assembled at the door of the tabernacle of meeting. ²³ So he said to them, “Why do you do such things? For I hear of your evil dealings from all the people. ²⁴ No, my sons! For it is not a good report that I hear. You make the Lord’s people transgress. ²⁵ If one man sins against another, ^(B)God^[b] will judge him. But if a man ^(C)sins against the Lord, who will intercede for him?” Nevertheless they did not heed the voice of their father, ^(D)because the Lord desired to kill them.
