And the Lord said to Samuel: Look not on his countenance, nor on the height of his stature: because I have rejected him, nor do I judge according to the look of man: for man seeth those things that appear, but the Lord beholdeth the heart.

Et l'Éternel dit à Samuel: Ne prends point garde à son apparence et à la hauteur de sa taille, car je l'ai rejeté. L'Éternel ne considère pas ce que l'homme considère; l'homme regarde à ce qui frappe les yeux, mais l'Éternel regarde au coeur
Martin Luther

Aber der HErr sprach zu Samuel: Siehe nicht an seine Gestalt noch seine große Person; ich habe ihn verworfen. Denn es gehet nicht, wie ein Mensch siehet. Ein Mensch siehet, was vor Augen ist, der HErr aber siehet das Herz an.
