1 Samuel 16:5-7
English Standard Version
5 And he said, “Peaceably; I have come to sacrifice to the Lord. (A)Consecrate yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice.” And he consecrated Jesse and his sons and invited them to the sacrifice.
6 When they came, he looked on (B)Eliab and thought, “Surely the Lord's anointed is before him.” 7 But the Lord said to Samuel, (C)“Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For the Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, (D)but the Lord looks on the heart.”
