The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters,
he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake.
Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
(大衛的詩。)耶和華是我的牧者,我必不至缺乏。

Jesse then had Shammah pass by, but Samuel said, "Nor has the Lord chosen this one."
Jesse had seven of his sons pass before Samuel, but Samuel said to him, "The Lord has not chosen these."
So he asked Jesse, "Are these all the sons you have?" "There is still the youngest," Jesse answered. "He is tending the sheep." Samuel said, "Send for him; we will not sit down until he arrives."
So he sent for him and had him brought in. He was glowing with health and had a fine appearance and handsome features. Then the Lord said, "Rise and anoint him; this is the one."
So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers, and from that day on the Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon David. Samuel then went to Ramah.

撒母耳對耶西說:「你的兒子都在這裡嗎?」他回答說:「還有個小的,現在放羊。」撒母耳對耶西說:「你打發人去叫他來;他若不來,我們必不坐席。」
耶西就打發人去叫了他來。他面色光紅,雙目清秀,容貌俊美。耶和華說:「這就是他,你起來膏他。」
撒母耳就用角裡的膏油,在他諸兄中膏了他。從這日起,耶和華的靈就大大感動大衛。撒母耳起身回拉瑪去了。
