1 Samuel 2:22-26

Listen to 1 Samuel 2:22-26
22 Eli était fort âgé et il apprit comment ses fils agissaient à l'égard de tout Israël; il apprit aussi qu'ils couchaient avec les femmes qui s'assemblaient à l'entrée de la tente d'assignation.
23 Il leur dit: Pourquoi faites-vous de telles choses? car j'apprends de tout le peuple vos mauvaises actions.
24 Non, mes enfants, ce que j'entends dire n'est pas bon; vous faites pécher le peuple de l'Eternel.
25 Si un homme pèche contre un autre homme, Dieu le jugera; mais s'il pèche contre l'Eternel, qui intercédera pour lui? Et ils n'écoutèrent point la voix de leur père, car l'Eternel voulait les faire mourir.
26 Le jeune Samuel continuait à grandir, et il était agréable à l'Eternel et aux hommes.

INTRODUCTION TO FIRST SAMUEL 2

In this chapter the song of Hannah is recorded, 1Sa 2:1-10, and an account is given of the return of Elkanah and Hannah to their own home, and of the care she took yearly to provide a coat for Samuel, and of her being blessed with many other children, and of the growth and ministry of Samuel before the Lord, 1Sa 2:11,18-21,26, and of the wickedness of the sons of Eli, 1Sa 2:12-17, and of Eli's too gentle treatment of them when he reproved them for it, 1Sa 2:22-25 and of a sharp message sent him from the Lord on that account, threatening destruction to his house, of which the death of his two sons would be a sign, 1Sa 2:27-36.
