Footnotes
- 9 Heb “he”; the referent (Eli) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
- 10 Heb “So God will do to you and thus he will add.” The verbal forms in this pronouncement are imperfects, not jussives, but the statement has the force of a curse or warning. One could translate, “May God do to you and thus may he add.”
- 11 Heb “he”; the referent (Eli) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
- 12 Heb “what is good in his eyes.”

KJV 1900King James Version
And he said, What is the thing that the Lord hath said unto thee? I pray thee hide it not from me: God do so to thee, and more also, if thou hide any thing from me of all the things that he said unto thee. And Samuel told him every whit, and hid nothing from him. And he said, It is the Lord: let him do what seemeth him good.
