1 Samuel 16:6-8

Revised Geneva Translation

⁶ And when they had come, he looked at Eliab, and said, “Surely the LORD’s anointed is before Him.”

⁷ But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance, or at the height of his stature, because I have refused him. For I see not as man sees. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD beholds the heart.”

⁸ Then Jesse called Abinadab and made him come before Samuel. And he said, “Nor has the LORD chosen this one.”
