“No, my sons; for it is not a good report that I hear! You make Yahweh’s people disobey.”
1 Samuel 2:24 (WEB)
Context Reading
22Now Eli was very old; and he heard all that his sons did to all Israel, and how that they slept with the women who served at the door of the Tent of Meeting. 23He said to them, “Why do you do such things? For I hear of your evil dealings from all these people. 24No, my sons; for it is not a good report that I hear! You make Yahweh’s people disobey. 25If one man sins against another, God will judge him; but if a man sins against Yahweh, who will intercede for him?” Notwithstanding, they didn’t listen to the voice of their father, because Yahweh intended to kill them. 26The child Samuel grew on, and increased in favor both with Yahweh and also with men.
