1 Samuel 16:6-9
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 16
6
When they entered, he looked at Eliab and thought, 'Surely the
Lord
’S anointed is
standing
before Him.'
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 God does not
see
as man sees, since man looks at the outward appearance, but the
Lord
looks at the heart.'
8
Then Jesse called Abinadab and had him pass before Samuel. But he said, 'The
Lord
has not chosen this one, either.'
9
Next Jesse had Shammah pass by. And he said, 'The
Lord
has not chosen this one, either.'
King James Version
Chapter 16
6
And it came to pass, when they were come, that he looked on Eliab, and said, Surely the
Lord
'S anointed is before him.
7
But the
Lord
said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the
Lord
seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the
Lord
looketh on the heart.
8
Then Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. And he said, Neither hath the
Lord
chosen this.
9
Then Jesse made Shammah to pass by. And he said, Neither hath the
Lord
chosen this.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 16
6
When they arrived, Samuel saw Eliab and said, "Certainly the
Lord
’s anointed one is here before him."
7
But the
Lord
said to Samuel, "Do not look at his appearance or his stature because I have rejected him. Humans do not see what the
Lord
sees, for humans see what is visible, but the
Lord
sees the heart."
8
Jesse called Abinadab and presented him to Samuel. "The
Lord
hasn’t chosen this one either," Samuel said.
9
Then Jesse presented Shammah, but Samuel said, "The
Lord
hasn’t chosen this one either."
New Living Translation
Chapter 16
6
When they arrived, Samuel took one look at Eliab and thought, 'Surely this is the
Lord
’s anointed!'
7
But the
Lord
said to Samuel, 'Don’t judge by his appearance or height, for I have rejected him. The
Lord
doesn’t see things the way you see them. People judge by outward appearance, but the
Lord
looks at the heart.'
8
Then Jesse told his son Abinadab to step forward and walk in front of Samuel. But Samuel said, 'This is not the one the
Lord
has chosen.'
9
Next Jesse summoned Shimea, but Samuel said, 'Neither is this the one the
Lord
has chosen.'

When they arrived, Samuel saw Eliab and thought, "Surely the
Lord
’s anointed stands here before the
Lord
."
7
But the
Lord
said to Samuel, "Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The
Lord
does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the
Lord
looks at the heart."
8
Then Jesse called Abinadab and had him pass in front of Samuel. But Samuel said, "The
Lord
has not chosen this one either."
9
Jesse then had Shammah pass by, but Samuel said, "Nor has the
Lord
chosen this one."
New King James Version
Chapter 16
6
So it was, when they came, that he looked at Eliab and said, “Surely the
Lord
’s anointed
is
before Him!”
7
But the
Lord
said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For
the
Lord
does
not
see
as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the
Lord
looks at the heart.”
8
So Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. And he said, “Neither has the
Lord
chosen this one.”
9
Then Jesse made Shammah pass by. And he said, “Neither has the
Lord
chosen this one.”
