1 Samuel 16:10-12

International Standard Version

¹⁰ Jesse brought seven of his sons before Samuel, and Samuel told Jesse, “The Lord has not chosen these.”

¹¹ Then Samuel told Jesse, “Are these all the young men?” He said, “There yet remains the youngest one, and right now he’s tending the sheep.” Samuel told Jesse, “Send someone to get him,^[a] for we won’t do anything else^[b] until he arrives here.” ¹² So he sent and brought him. He had a dark, healthy complexion, with beautiful eyes, and he was handsome. The Lord said, “Get up and anoint him, for this is the one.”
