The passage reveals a significant moment where the King is entrusting Beowulf with the great hall, indicating a strong sense of faith in Beowulf’s capabilities. The phrases "give it in trust to thee" and "keep it as befits its grace" strongly suggest that the King holds Beowulf in high regard, which would align with the inference that the King trusts Beowulf to defeat Grendel. Therefore, the best-supported inference is: C. The King trusts Beowulf to defeat Grendel.
