22 And Eli [is] very old, and has heard all that his sons do to all Israel, and how that they lie with the women who are assembling [at] the opening of the Tent of Meeting, 23 and he says to them, “Why do you do things like these? For I am hearing of your evil words from all the people—these! 24 No, my sons; for the report which I am hearing is not good, causing the people of YHWH to transgress. 25 If a man sins against a man, then God has judged him; but if a man sins against YHWH, who prays for him?” And they do not listen to the voice of their father, though YHWH has delighted to put them to death. 1 Samuel 2:22-25, Literal Standard Version.
