1 Samuel 2:24-26
New Living Translation
24 You must stop, my sons! The reports I hear among the Lord’s people are not good. 25 If someone sins against another person, God[a] can mediate for the guilty party. But if someone sins against the Lord, who can intercede?” But Eli’s sons wouldn’t listen to their father, for the Lord was already planning to put them to death.
26 Meanwhile, the boy Samuel grew taller and grew in favor with the Lord and with the people.
