H7854
And Satan
H5975
stood up
H3478
against Israel,
H5496
and moved
H1732
David
H4487
to number
H3478
Israel.
2
H1732
And David
H559
said
H3097
to Joab
H8269
and to the princes
H5971
of the people,
H3212
Go,
H5608
number
H3478
Israel
H884
from Beer-sheba
H1835
even to Dan;
H935
and bring
H3045
me word, that I may know
H4557
the sum of them.
3
H3097
And Joab
H559
said,
H3068
Jehovah
H5971
make his people
H3967
a hundred
H6471
times
H1992
as many as they
H113
are: but, my lord
H4428
the king,
H1992
are they
H113
not all my lord's
H5650
servants?
H113
why doth my lord
H1245
require
H819
this thing? why will he be a cause of guilt
H3478
unto Israel?
4
H4428
Nevertheless the king's
H1697
word
H2388
prevailed
H3097
against Joab.
H3097
Wherefore Joab
H3318
departed,
H1980
and went
H3478
throughout all Israel,
H935
and came
H3389
to Jerusalem.
5
H3097
And Joab
H5414
gave
H4557
up the sum
H4662
of the numbering
H5971
of the people
H1732
unto David.
H3478
And all they of Israel
H505
were a thousand
H505
thousand
H3967
and a hundred
H505
thousand
H376
men
H8025
that drew
H2719
sword:
H3063
and Judah
H702
was four
H3967
hundred
H7657
threescore and ten
H505
thousand
H376
men
H8025
that drew
H2719
sword.
6
H3878
But Levi
H1144
and Benjamin
H6485
counted
H8432
he not among
H4428
them; for the king's
H1697
word
H8581
was abominable
H3097
to Joab.
8
H1732
And David
H559
said
H430
unto God,
H2398
I have sinned
H3966
greatly,
H6213
in that I have done
H1697
this thing:
H5674
but now, put away,
H5771
I beseech thee, the iniquity
H5650
of thy servant;
H3966
for I have done very
H5528
foolishly.
10
H3212
Go
H1696
and speak
H1732
unto David,
H559
saying,
H559
Thus saith
H3068
Jehovah,
H5186
I offer
H7969
thee three
H977
things: choose
H259
thee one
H2007
of them,
H6213
that I may do it unto thee.
11
H1410
So Gad
H935
came
H1732
to David,
H559
and said
H559
unto him, Thus saith
H3068
Jehovah,
H6901
Take which thou wilt:
12
H7969
either three
H8141
years
H7458
of famine;
H7969
or three
H2320
months
H5595
to be consumed
H6440
before
H6862
thy foes,
H2719
while the sword
H341
of thine enemies
H5381
overtaketh
H518
thee; or
H7969
else three
H3117
days
H2719
the sword
H3068
of Jehovah,
H1698
even pestilence
H776
in the land,
H4397
and the angel
H3068
of Jehovah
H7843
destroying
H1366
throughout all the borders
H3478
of Israel.
H7200
Now therefore consider
H1697
what answer
H7725
I shall return
H7971
to him that sent me.
13
H1732
And David
H559
said
H1410
unto Gad,
H3966
I am in a great
H6887
strait:
H5307
let me fall,
H3027
I pray, into the hand
H3068
of Jehovah;
H3966
for very
H7227
great
H7356
are his mercies:
H5307
and let me not fall
H3027
into the hand
H120
of man.
14
H3068
So Jehovah
H5414
sent
H1698
a pestilence
H3478
upon Israel;
H5307
and there fell
H3478
of Israel
H7657
seventy
H505
thousand
H376
men.
15
H430
And God
H7971
sent
H4397
an angel
H3389
unto Jerusalem
H7843
to destroy
H7843
it: and as he was about to destroy,
H3068
Jehovah
H7200
beheld,
H5162
and he repented
H7451
him of the evil,
H559
and said
H7843
to the destroying
H4397
angel,
H7227
It is enough;
H7503
now stay
H3027
thy hand.
H4397
And the angel
H3068
of Jehovah
H5975
was standing
H1637
by the threshing-floor
H771
of Ornan
H2983
the Jebusite.
16
H1732
And David
H5375
lifted up
H5869
his eyes,
H7200
and saw
H4397
the angel
H3068
of Jehovah
H5975
standing
H776
between earth
H8064
and heaven,
H8025
having a drawn
H2719
sword
H3027
in his hand
H5186
stretched out
H3389
over Jerusalem.
H1732
Then David
H2205
and the elders,
H3680
clothed
H8242
in sackcloth,
H5307
fell
H6440
upon their faces.
17
H1732
And David
H559
said
H430
unto God,
H559
Is it not I that commanded
H5971
the people
H4487
to be numbered?
H2398
even I it is that have sinned
H7489
and done very
H7489
wickedly;
H6629
but these sheep,
H6213
what have they done?
H3027
let thy hand,
H3068
I pray thee, O Jehovah
H430
my God,
H1
be against me, and against my father's
H1004
house;
H5971
but not against thy people,
H4046
that they should be plagued.
