But why doth my lord the king set his mind upon this? ⁴ But the word of the king prevailed against Joab, and the officers of the army. So Joab and the chiefs of the army before the king, went out to review the people, Israel. ⁵ And they crossed the Jordan, and encamped at Aroer on the right of the city, in the valley of Gad and Eliezer. ⁶ Then they went to Galaad, and to the land of Thabason, which is Adasai, and came to Danidan and Oudan; and having gone round Sidon, ⁷ and come to Mapsar of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Evites, and the Chananites, they came to the south of Juda to Bersabee. ⁸ So when they had gone round through all the land, they came to Jerusalem, at the end of nine months and twenty days. ⁹ And Joab laid before the king the amount of the review of the people. And that of Israel was eight hundred thousand fighting men: and the men of Juda were five hundred thousand warriors. ¹⁰ And David's heart smote him after this numbering of the people: and David said to the Lord, I have sinned greatly in what I have done. Now therefore, Lord, forgive, I beseech thee, the iniquity of thy servant, for I have acted very foolishly. ¹¹ And when David arose in the morning, a word of the Lord came to the prophet Gad, the seer, saying, ¹² Go and speak to David, and say, Thus saith the Lord, Three things I am ready to bring upon thee, chuse therefore for thyself one of them, that I may do it to thee. ¹³ So Gad went to David, and delivered the message, and said, Chuse what shall be done to thee. Shall three years of famine come on all thy land? Or wilt thou flee three months before thine enemies while they pursue thee? Or shall there be three days of pestilence in thy land? Now therefore consider; and see what answer I shall make to him who sent me. ¹⁴ Thereupon David said to Gad, I am in great straits on every side. Pray let me fall into the hands of the Lord; for very many and great are his mercies. But let me not fall into the hands of men. ¹⁵ Now when David chose for himself the pestilence, it was the time of the wheat harvest. And the Lord sent a pestilence through Israel, from the morning till the hour of dining. And the slaughter began among the people, and there died of the people from Dan to Bersabee, seventy thousand men.

Though the Egyptian had in his hand a spear like a weaver's beam, Banaias went against him with a staff, and wresting the spear out of the hand of the Egyptian, he slew him with his own spear. ²⁴ These things Banaias son of Jodae did, and had a name among the three worthies. ²⁵ He was higher in rank than the thirty but did not come up to the three, and David set him over his family. ²⁶ And the commanders of the armies were Asael a brother of Joab, Eleanan son of Dodoe of Bethlehem; ²⁷ Samaoth the Arorite; Chelles the Phelonite; ²⁸ Or, a son of Ekkis the Thekoite; Abiezer the Anathothite; ²⁹ Sobochai the Ousathite; Eli the Achonite; ³⁰ Marai the Netophathite: Chthaod son of Nooza the Netophathite; ³¹ Airi son of Rebie of Mount Benjamin; Banaias the Phrathonite;

¹ Now when an adversary stood up in Israel and persuaded David to number Israel, ² and king David said to Joab and the chiefs of the army, Go, number Israel from Dan to Bersabee, and let me know the number of them,

They are all servants to my lord. Why doth my lord seek this? May it not be a cause of trespass to Israel?

³ Joab replied, The Lord add to his people a hundred times as many as there are. and may the eyes of my lord the king see it. They are all servants to my lord. Why doth my lord seek this? May it not be a cause of trespass to Israel? ⁴ But the king's determination prevailed against Joab, so he went forth, and having passed through all Israel, and come to Jerusalem,

⁴ But the king's determination prevailed against Joab, so he went forth, and having passed through all Israel, and come to Jerusalem, ⁵ he gave David an account of the review of the people, and the whole number of the men of Israel who drew a sword, w r as eleven hundred thousand, and the children of Juda were four hundred and seventy thousand men who drew a sword.

⁵ he gave David an account of the review of the people, and the whole number of the men of Israel who drew a sword, w r as eleven hundred thousand, and the children of Juda were four hundred and seventy thousand men who drew a sword. ⁶ But he did not number Levi and Benjamin among them. Because the king's word prevailed over Joab, ⁷ and the thing was evil in the sight of God, therefore he smote Israel. ⁸ When David said to God, I have sinned greatly in doing this, now therefore take away, I beseech thee, this wickedness of thy servant, for I have acted very foolishly ⁹ the Lord spoke to Gad, the seer, saying, ¹⁰ Go, and speak to David, and say, Thus saith the Lord, I offer thee three things, chuse for thyself one of them that I may do it to thee ¹¹ So Gad went to David and said to him, Thus saith the Lord, Chuse for thyself ¹² either three years of famine; or three months to flee before thy enemies while the sword of thy enemies is destroying thee; or the sword of the Lord and pestilence for three days throughout the land, while an angel of the Lord is making havock in all the inheritance of Israel. Now therefore consider What answer shall I make to him who sent me? ¹³ Thereupon David said to Gad, Very hard indeed to me are all the three. Let me however fall into the hands of the Lord, for his tender mercies are exceeding great. But let me not fall into the hands of men. ¹⁴ So the Lord sent a pestilence through Israel, and there fell of the Israelites seventy thousand men. ¹⁵ And when God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it, and he was making havock, the Lord looked and relented at the calamity, and said to the destroying angel, Let this suffice thee. Stay thy hand. Now the angel of the Lord was standing at the threshing floor of Orna, the Jebusite. ¹⁶ And when David raised his eyes and saw the angel of the Lord standing between the earth and heaven, with a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem, he and all the elders being clad in sackcloth, fell on their faces, ¹⁷ and David said to God, Was it not I who ordered the numbering of the people? I indeed am the sinner. It is I who committed the sin. But as for this flock, what have they done? Lord my God, Let thy hand be upon me, and on my father's house, and not on this thy people, O Lord, to destruction.

¹² And Josaphat advanced in greatness to a high degree, and built castles and strong cities in Judea, ¹³ and had many works done for him in Judea.

The chiliarchs for Juda were Edna the chief, and with him sons, mighties of the army, three hundred chiliads; ¹⁵ and after him Joanan the leader and with him two hundred and eighty chiliads; ¹⁶ and after him Amasias the Zarite, who devoted himself to the Lord, and with him two hundred chiliads, mighties of the army; ¹⁷ and from Benjamin a mighty of the army, namely Eliada, and with him bow men, and those armed with shields, two hundred chiliads; ¹⁸ and after him Jozabad, and with him eighty chiliads, mighties of battle. ¹⁹ All these waited on the king, excepting them whom the king placed in the fortified cities throughout all Judea.

¹⁰ he built towers in the wilderness, and dug many wells, for he bad much cattle at Sephale, and in the plains, and vine dressers in the hilly country, and on Karmel, for he was fond of husbandry. ¹¹ Moreover Ozias had an army of fighting men, which went out in array for battle, and came in, in array, to be numbered. And they were numbered by Jeiel the scribe and Maasias the judge, under the direction of Ananias the king's lieutenant. ¹² The whole number of the chiefs, the officers of the army, was two thousand six hundred; ¹³ and the army of fighting men with them was three hundred and seven thousand five hundred. These were trained for battle to assist the king against enemies.

³ His attendants were numerous, and his works great in the country. He was also a man of illustrious birth, among the people of the east.

¹³ But thou, man, my second self, my guide, mine intimate friend!

⁸ But there were ten men among them who said to Ismael, Do not kill us; for we have treasures in a field, wheat and barley, honey and oil. So he forbore and did not kill them among their brethren.

² But as for thee, Bethlehem, thou house of Ephratha, art thou too little to be one of the chiliads of Juda? Out of thee one shall come forth for me to be the chief of Israel. His goings forth have been from the beginning; from the days of an age.

⁷ Awake, sword, against my shepherds, and against my chief citizen, saith the Lord Almighty; I will smite the shepherds and the sheep shall be scattered and I will bring my hand on the little ones.

¹² Therefore there sprang even from one, and him dead as to these things, a posterity like the stars of heaven for multitude, and like the sand on the sea shore which is innumerable.
