1 Samuel 16:7-9

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁷ And the Lord said to Samuel: Look not on his countenance, nor on the height of his stature: because I have rejected him, nor do I judge according to the look of man: for man seeth those things that appear, but the Lord beholdeth the heart.

⁸ And Isai called Abinadab, and brought him before Samuel. And he said: Neither hath the Lord chosen this.

⁹ And Isai brought Samma, and he said of him: Neither hath the Lord chosen this.
