1 Samuel 2:24-26
1599 Geneva Bible
24 Do no more, my sons: for it is no good report that I hear, which is, that ye make the Lord’s people to [a]trespass.
25 If one man sin against another, the Judge shall judge it: but if a man sin against the Lord, who will plead for him? Notwithstanding they obeyed not the voice of their father, because the Lord [b]would slay them.
26 ¶ (Now the child Samuel profited, and grew, and was in favor both with the Lord and also with men.)
