Now Eli was very old. He heard about everything his sons were doing to all the Israelites and how his sons had sexual relations with the women who served at the entrance to the Meeting Tent. Eli said to his sons, “Why do you do these evil things that the people tell me about? No, my sons. The LORD’s people are spreading a bad report about you. If you sin against someone, God can help you. But if you sin against the LORD himself, no one can help you!” But Eli’s sons would not listen to him, because the LORD had decided to put them to death.
