1 Samuel 2:22-25

22Now EliH5941 was veryH3966 oldH2204; and he heardH8085 1allH3605 that his sonsH1121 were doingH6213 to allH3605 IsraelH3478, and howH854H834 they layH7901 with 2the womenH802 who servedH6633 at the doorwayH6607 of the tentH168 of meetingH4150. 23He saidH559 to them, “WhyH4100 do you doH6213 suchH428 thingsH1697, the evilH7451 thingsH1697 that I hearH8085 from allH3605 theseH428 peopleH5971? 24NoH408, my sonsH1121; for the reportH8052 is not goodH2896 3whichH834 I hearH8085 4the Lord’sH3068 peopleH5971 circulatingH5674. 25IfH518 one manH376 sinsH2398 against anotherH376, 5GodH430 will mediateH6419 for him; but 6ifH518 a manH376 sinsH2398 against the LordH3068, whoH4310 can intercedeH6419 for him?” But they would not listenH8085 to the voiceH6963 of their fatherH1, for the 7LordH3068 desiredH2654 to putH4191 them to deathH4191.
