1 Samuel 16:7

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or height, for I have rejected him; the LORD does not see as man does. For man sees the outward appearance, but the LORD sees the heart.”

World English Bible (WEB)

But Yahweh said to Samuel, “Don’t look on his face, or on the height of his stature; because I have rejected him: for I see not as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but Yahweh looks at the heart.”

Strong's King James

But the LORD{H3068} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Samuel{H8050}, Look{H5027}{(H8686)} not on his countenance{H4758}, or on the height{H1364} of his stature{H6967}; because I have refused{H3988}{(H8804)} him: for the LORD seeth not as man{H120} seeth{H7200}{(H8799)}; for man{H120} looketh{H7200}{(H8799)} on the outward appearance{H5869}, but the LORD{H3068} looketh{H7200}{(H8799)} on the heart{H3824}.
