But why does my lord the king want to do this thing?" 4 Nevertheless, the king's word prevailed over Joab and the commanders of the army. So Joab and the commanders went out from the presence of the king to count the people of Israel. 5 They crossed the Jordan and camped at Aroer, on the right side of the city in the middle of the valley of Gad, and proceeded to Jazer. 6 Then they went to Gilead and the land of Tahtim Hodshi, and they came to Dan Jaan and around to Sidon. 7 They went to the fortress of Tyre and all the cities of the Hivites and the Canaanites. Then they went to the Negev of Judah in Beersheba. 8 After traveling through the entire land, they returned to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days. 9 Joab reported the number of the people to the king: Israel had eight hundred thousand able men who could handle a sword, and Judah had five hundred thousand.
