Eli, very old, hears what his sons do and speaks to them

매우 늙은 엘리가 그 아들들에게 한 말

1 Samuel 2:22–26: now Eli is very old; and he hears all that his sons do to all Israel, and how that they slept with the women who served at the door of the Tent of Meeting. He says to them, “Why do you do such things? For I hear of your evil dealings from all these people. No, my sons; for it is not a good report that I hear! You make the LORD’s people disobey. If one man sins against another, God will judge him; but if a man sins against the LORD, who will intercede for him?” Notwithstanding, they don’t listen to the voice of their father, because the LORD intended to kill them. The child Samuel grows on, and increases in favor both with the LORD and also with men.
