1 Samuel 16:7-9

New American Standard Bible

⁷ But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for ^[a]God does not see as man sees, since man looks at ^[b]the outward appearance, ^(A)but the Lord looks at the heart.” ⁸ Then Jesse called ^(B)Abinadab and had him pass before Samuel. But he said, “The Lord has not chosen this one, either.” ⁹ Next Jesse had ^[c](C)Shammah pass by. And he said, “The Lord has not chosen this one, either.”
