1 Samuel 2:24-26

Modern English Version

²⁴ No, my sons! Truly, it is not a good report that I hear the people of the Lord spreading. ²⁵ If one man sins against another, God will judge him, but if a man sins against the Lord, who will intercede for him?” But they did not listen to the voice of their father, because the Lord desired to kill them.

²⁶ Now the boy Samuel was growing both in stature and favor with the Lord and also with men.
