22 Now Eli was very old; and he heard aall that his sons were doing to all Israel, and how they lay with bthe women who served at the doorway of the tent of meeting. 23 So 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 awhich I hear the people of Yahweh passing about. 25 If one man sins against another, aGod will mediate for him; but bif a man sins against Yahweh, who can pray for him?” But they would not listen to the voice of their father, for cYahweh desired to put them to death.
