1 Samuel 16:7-12

CAB(i) 7 But the Lord said to Samuel, Look not on his appearance, nor on his stature, for I have rejected him; for God sees not as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but God looks at the heart. 8 And Jesse called Abinadab, and he passed before Samuel. And he said, Neither has God chosen this one. 9 And Jesse caused Shammah to pass by. And he said, Neither has God chosen this one. 10 And Jesse caused his seven sons to pass before Samuel. And Samuel said, the Lord has not chosen these. 11 And Samuel said to Jesse, Have you no more sons? And Jesse said, There is yet a little one; behold, he tends the flock. And Samuel said to Jesse, Send and fetch him, for we may not sit down till he comes. 12 And he sent and fetched him. And he was ruddy, with beautiful eyes, and very good looking. And the Lord said to Samuel, Arise, and anoint David, for he is good.
