1 Samuel 8:1-3
1In his old age Samuel appointed his sons as judges over Israel.
2The name of his firstborn son was Joel, and the name of his second son was Abijah. They were judges in Beer Sheba.
3But his sons did not follow his ways. Instead, they made money dishonestly, accepted bribes, and perverted justice.
