1 Samuel 2:22-25

22Now, Eli was very old, and he had heard everything that his sons were doing to all Israel and that they were sleeping with the women who served at the gate of the tent of meeting.

23So he asked them, “Why are you doing such things? I hear about your wicked ways from all these people.

24Sons, the report that I hear the people of the Lord spreading isn’t good!

25If one person sins against another, God will take care of him. However, when a person sins against the Lord, who will pray for him?” But they wouldn’t listen to their father’s warning—the Lord wanted to kill them.
