1 Samuel 16:11-13

Lexham English Bible

¹¹ Then Samuel said to Jesse, “Are all the young men here?”^[a] And he said, “The youngest still remains, but look, he is shepherding the flock.” And Samuel said to Jesse, “Send and bring him, for we cannot sit down^[b] until he comes here.” ¹² So he sent and brought him. Now he was ruddy with beautiful eyes and of handsome^[c] appearance. And Yahweh said, “Arise, anoint him, for this is he.” ¹³ So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his brothers. Then the Spirit of Yahweh rushed upon David from that day on.^[d] Then Samuel got up and went to Ramah.
