1 Samuel 3:13-15
Common English Bible
13 I told him that I would punish his family forever because of the wrongdoing he knew about—how his sons were cursing God,[a] but he wouldn’t stop them. 14 Because of that I swore about Eli’s household that his family’s wrongdoing will never be reconciled by sacrifice or by offering.”
15 Samuel lay there until morning, then opened the doors of the Lord’s house. Samuel was afraid to tell the vision to Eli.
