23And he said to them, “Why do you do such things? For I hear from all these people about your evil deeds.”

24No, my sons; for the report that I hear is not good. You are making Yahweh’s people transgress.

25If a man sins against another man, God will mediate for him; but if a man sins against Yahweh, who will pray for him? But they would not listen to the voice of their father, because Yahweh desired to put them to death.
