1 Samuel 16:7-13
7But the LORDH3068 saidH559 to SamuelH8050, LookH5027 not on his countenanceH4758, or on the heightH1364 of his statureH6967; because I have refusedH3988 him: for the LORD seeth not as manH120 seethH7200; for manH120 lookethH7200 on the outward appearanceH5869, but the LORDH3068 lookethH7200 on the heartH3824.1 8Then JesseH3448 calledH7121 AbinadabH41, and made him passH5674 beforeH6440 SamuelH8050. And he saidH559, Neither hath the LORDH3068 chosenH977 this. 9Then JesseH3448 made ShammahH8048 to pass byH5674. And he saidH559, Neither hath the LORDH3068 chosenH977 this.2 10Again, JesseH3448 made sevenH7651 of his sonsH1121 to passH5674 beforeH6440 SamuelH8050. And SamuelH8050 saidH559 to JesseH3448, The LORDH3068 hath not chosenH977 these. 11And SamuelH8050 saidH559 to JesseH3448, Are here allH8552 thy childrenH5288? And he saidH559, There remainethH7604 yet the youngestH6996, and, behold, he keepethH7462 the sheepH6629. And SamuelH8050 saidH559 to JesseH3448, SendH7971 and bringH3947 him: for we will not sit downH5437 till he hath comeH935 hereH6311.3 12And he sentH7971, and brought him inH935. Now he was ruddyH132, and alsoH5973 of a beautifulH3303 countenanceH5869, and a good appearanceH2896H7210. And the LORDH3068 saidH559, AriseH6965, anointH4886 him: for this is he.4 13Then SamuelH8050 tookH3947 the hornH7161 of oilH8081, and anointedH4886 him in the midstH7130 of his brethrenH251: and the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 cameH6743 upon DavidH1732 from that dayH3117 onwardH4605. So SamuelH8050 aroseH6965, and wentH3212 to RamahH7414.
