1 Samuel 2:23 Context
21And the Lord visited Hannah, so that shee conceiued, and bare three sonnes, and two daughters: and the child Samuel grew before the Lord. 22¶ Now Eli was very olde, and heard all that his sonnes did vnto all Israel, and how they lay with the women that assembled at the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation 23And he said vnto them, Why doe ye such things? for I heare of your euil dealings, by all this people. 24Nay my sonnes: for it is no good report that I heare; yee make the Lords people to transgresse. 25If one man sinne against another, the Iudge shall iudge him: but if a man sinne against the Lord, who shall intreat for him? Notwithstanding they hearkened not vnto the voice of their father, because the Lord would slay them.
