22Now Eli was very old, and he heard about everything his sons were doing to all Israel and how they were sleeping with the women who served at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
23“Why are you doing these things?” Eli said to his sons. “I hear about your wicked deeds from all these people.
24No, my sons; it is not a good report I hear circulating among the LORD’s people.
25If a man sins against another man, God can intercede for him; but if a man sins against the LORD, who can intercede for him?” But they would not listen to their father, since the LORD intended to put them to death.
