1 Samuel 3:13
I will judge his house for ever - I will continue to execute judgments upon it till it is destroyed.
His sons made themselves vile - See I Samuel 2:12-17, I Samuel 2:22-25.
He restrained them not - He did not use his parental and juridical authority to curb them, and prevent the disorders which they committed. See at the conclusion of the chapter, I Samuel 3:21 (note).
