1 SAMUEL 3:20 — KING JAMES VERSION 0
“And all Israel from Dan even to Beer–sheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the Lord.”
And Eli said: It is the LORD; let him do what seems good to him—*hu YHWH* (He is the LORD) marks Eli's resignation to divine will. *Yitpol* (let him do) expresses acceptance of judgment, a posture of *shalom* (peace) with doom. Eli's faith in God transcends his personal destruction.
