22 So Eli was very olde, and heard all that his sonnes did vnto all Israel, and howe they laye with the women that assembled at the doore of the tabernacle of the Congregation. 23 And hee saide vnto them, Why doe ye such things? For of all this people I heare euill reportes of you. 24 Do no more, my sonnes, for it is no good report that I heare, which is, that ye make the Lords people to trespasse. 25 If one man sinne against another, the Iudge shal iudge it: but if a man sinne against the Lord, who will pleade for him? Notwithstanding they obeyed not the voyce of their father, because the Lord would slay them. 1 Samuel 2:22-25, Geneva Bible of 1587. Public domain.
