1 Samuel 16:4-13

And Samuel
<08050>

did
<06213> (8799)

that which the LORD
<03068>

spake
<01696> (8765)_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

to Bethlehem
<01035>_.

And the elders
<02205>

of the town
<05892>

trembled
<02729> (8799)

at his coming
<07125> (8800)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Comest
<0935> (8800)

thou peaceably
<07965>_?

{coming: Heb. meeting}

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Peaceably
<07965>_:

I am come
<0935> (8804)

to sacrifice
<02076> (8800)

unto the LORD
<03068>_:

sanctify
<06942> (8690)

yourselves, and come
<0935> (8804)

with me to the sacrifice
<02077>_.

And he sanctified
<06942> (8762)

Jesse
<03448>

and his sons
<01121>_,

and called
<07121> (8799)

them to the sacrifice
<02077>_.

And it came to pass, when they were come
<0935> (8800)_,

that he looked
<07200> (8799)

on Eliab
<0446>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Surely the LORD'S
<03068>

anointed
<04899>

[is] before him. {Eliab: called Elihu}

But the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Samuel
<08050>_,

Look
<05027> (8686)

not on his countenance
<04758>_,

or on the height
<01364>

of his stature
<06967>_;

because I have refused
<03988> (8804)

him: for [the LORD seeth] not as man
<0120>

seeth
<07200> (8799)_;

for man
<0120>

looketh
<07200> (8799)

on the outward appearance
<05869>_,

but the LORD
<03068>

looketh
<07200> (8799)

on the heart
<03824>_.

{outward...: Heb. eyes}

Then Jesse
<03448>

called
<07121> (8799)

Abinadab
<041>_,

and made him pass
<05674> (8686)

before
<06440>

Samuel
<08050>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Neither hath the LORD
<03068>

chosen
<0977> (8804)

this.

Then Jesse
<03448>

made Shammah
<08048>

to pass by
<05674> (8686)_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Neither hath the LORD
<03068>

chosen
<0977> (8804)

this. {Shammah: Shimeah, also called, Shimma}

Again, Jesse
<03448>

made seven
<07651>

of his sons
<01121>

to pass
<05674> (8686)

before
<06440>

Samuel
<08050>_.

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jesse
<03448>_,

The LORD
<03068>

hath not chosen
<0977> (8804)

these.

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jesse
<03448>_,

Are here all
<08552> (8804)

[thy] children
<05288>_?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

There remaineth
<07604> (8804)

yet the youngest
<06996>_,

and, behold, he keepeth
<07462> (8802)

the sheep
<06629>_.

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jesse
<03448>_,

Send
<07971> (8798)

and fetch
<03947> (8798)

him: for we will not sit down
<05437> (8799)

till he come
<0935> (8800)

hither
<06311>_.

{down: Heb. round}

And he sent
<07971> (8799)_,

and brought him in
<0935> (8686)_.

Now he [was] ruddy
<0132>_,

[and] withal
<05973>

of a beautiful
<03303>

countenance
<05869>_,

and goodly
<02896>

to look to
<07210>_.

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

anoint
<04886> (8798)

him: for this [is] he. {of a...: Heb. fair of eyes}

Then Samuel
<08050>

took
<03947> (8799)

the horn
<07161>

of oil
<08081>_,

and anointed
<04886> (8799)

him in the midst
<07130>

of his brethren
<0251>_:

and the Spirit
<07307>

of the LORD
<03068>

came
<06743> (8799)

upon David
<01732>

from that day
<03117>

forward
<04605>_.

So Samuel
<08050>

rose up
<06965> (8799)_,

and went
<03212> (8799)

to Ramah
<07414>_.
