1 Samuel 16:11 in Context — 1 Samuel 16

9 Isaï fit passer Schamma; et Samuel dit: L’Éternel n’a pas non plus choisi celui-ci.

10 Isaï fit passer ses sept fils devant Samuel; et Samuel dit à Isaï: L’Éternel n’a choisi aucun d’eux.

11 Puis Samuel dit à Isaï: Sont-ce là tous tes fils? Et il répondit: Il reste encore le plus jeune, mais il fait paître les brebis. Alors Samuel dit à Isaï: Envoie-le chercher, car nous ne nous placerons pas avant qu’il ne soit venu ici.

12 Isaï l’envoya chercher. Or il était blond, avec de beaux yeux et une belle figure. L’Éternel dit à Samuel: Lève-toi, oins-le, car c’est lui!

13 Samuel prit la corne d’huile, et l’oignit au milieu de ses frères. L’esprit de l’Éternel saisit David, à partir de ce jour et dans la suite. Samuel se leva, et s’en alla à Rama.
