“One of the servants answered, “I have seen a son of Jesse of Bethlehem who knows how to play the lyre.  He is a brave man and a warrior. He speaks well and is a fine-looking man.  And the Lord is with him.”  Then Saul sent messengers to Jesse and said, “Send me your son David, who is with the sheep.”  So Jesse took a donkey loaded with bread, a skin of wine and a young goat and sent them with his son David to Saul.  David came to Saul and entered his service. Saul liked him very much, and David became one of his armor-bearers.” 1 Samuel 16:18–21

“But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.  We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.  We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.”  2 Corinthians 4:7-10

“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.” 1 Samuel 16:10-11
