2 H4428 For the king H559 [H8799] said H3097 to Joab H8269 the captain H2428 of the host, H7751 [H8798] who was with him, Go now through H7626 all the tribes H3478 of Israel, H1835 from Dan H884 even to Beersheba, H6485 [H8798] and number H5971 ye the people, H3045 [H8804] that I may know H4557 the number H5971 of the people.

3 H3097 And Joab H559 [H8799] said H4428 to the king, H3068 Now the LORD H430 thy God H3254 [H8686] add H5971 to the people, H1992 as many as H3967 H6471 they may be, an hundredfold, H5869 and that the eyes H113 of my sovereign H4428 the king H7200 [H8802] may see H113 it: but why doth my sovereign H4428 the king H2654 [H8804] delight H1697 in this thing?

4 H4428 But the king's H1697 word H2388 [H8799] prevailed H3097 against Joab, H8269 and against the captains H2428 of the host. H3097 And Joab H8269 and the captains H2428 of the host H3318 [H8799] went out H6440 from the face H4428 of the king, H6485 [H8800] to number H5971 the people H3478 of Israel.

5 H5674 [H8799] And they passed over H3383 Jordan, H2583 [H8799] and encamped H6177 in Aroer, H3225 on the right side H5892 of the city H8432 that lieth in the midst H5158 of the river H1410 of Gad, H3270 and toward Jazer:

6 H935 [H8799] Then they came H1568 to Gilead, H776 and to the land H8483 of Tahtimhodshi; H935 [H8799] and they came H1842 to Danjaan, H5439 and about H6721 to Zidon,

7 H935 [H8799] And came H4013 to the strong hold H6865 of Tyre, H5892 and to all the cities H2340 of the Hivites, H3669 and of the Canaanites: H3318 [H8799] and they went out H5045 to the south H3063 of Judah, H884 even to Beersheba.

8 H7751 [H8799] So when they had gone H776 through all the land, H935 [H8799] they came H3389 to Jerusalem H7097 at the end H8672 of nine H2320 months H6242 and twenty H3117 days.

9 H3097 And Joab H5414 [H8799] presented H4557 the sum H4662 of the number H5971 of the people H4428 to the king: H3478 and there were in Israel H8083 eight H3967 hundred H505 thousand H2428 valiant H376 H381 [H8677] men H8025 [H8802] that drew H2719 the sword; H376 and the men H3063 of Judah H2568 were five H3967 hundred H505 thousand H376 men.

10 H1732 And David's H3820 heart H5221 [H8686] smote H310 him after H5608 [H8804] that he had numbered H5971 the people. H1732 And David H559 [H8799] said H3068 to the LORD, H2398 [H8804] I have sinned H3966 greatly H6213 [H8804] in what I have done: H3068 and now, I beseech thee, O LORD, H5674 [H8685] take away H5771 the perversity H5650 of thy servant; H3966 for I have done very H5528 [H8738] foolishly.

11 H1732 For when David H6965 [H8799] had risen H1242 in the morning, H1697 the word H3068 of the LORD H5030 came to the prophet H1410 Gad, H1732 David's H2374 envisioner, H559 [H8800] saying,

12 H1980 [H8800] Go H559 [H8804] and say H1732 to David, H1696 [H8765] Thus saith H3068 the LORD, H5190 [H8802] I offer H7969 thee three H977 [H8798] things; choose H259 thee one H6213 [H8799] of them, that I may do it to thee.

13 H1410 So Gad H935 [H8799] came H1732 to David, H5046 [H8686] and told H559 [H8799] him, and said H7651 to him, Shall seven H8141 years H7458 of famine H935 [H8799] come H776 upon thee in thy land? H5127 [H8800] or wilt thou flee H7969 three H2320 months H6440 at the face of H6862 thy constricters, H7291 [H8802] while they pursue H7969 thee? or that there be three H3117 days' H1698 pestilence H776 in thy land? H3045 [H8798] now consider, H7200 [H8798] and see H1697 what answer H7725 [H8686] I shall return H7971 [H8802] to him that sent me.

14 H1732 And David H559 [H8799] said H1410 to Gad, H3966 I am in deep H6887 [H8804] distress: H5307 [H8799] let us fall H3027 now into the hand H3068 of the LORD; H7356 for his compassions H7227 are great: H5307 [H8799] and let me not fall H3027 into the hand H120 of man.

15 H3068 So the LORD H5414 [H8799] sent H1698 a pestilence H3478 upon Israel H1242 from the morning H6256 even to the time H4150 appointed: H4191 [H8799] and there died H5971 of the people H1835 from Dan H884 even to Beersheba H7657 seventy H505 thousand H376 men.
