  • 2 Sam 24:1-9 : 1 And again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and He moved David against them to say, Go, number Israel and Judah. 2 For the king said to Joab the captain of the army, who was with him, Go now through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan to Beersheba, and count the people, that I may know the number of the people. 3 And Joab said to the king, Now the LORD your God add to the people, however many they may be, a hundredfold, and may the eyes of my lord the king see it: but why does my lord the king delight in this thing? 4 Nevertheless, the king's word prevailed against Joab, and against the captains of the army. Therefore Joab and the captains of the army went out from the presence of the king, to count the people of Israel. 5 And they crossed over the Jordan and camped in Aroer, on the right side of the city that lies in the midst of the river of Gad, and toward Jazer. 6 Then they came to Gilead, and to the land of Tahtim Hodshi; and they came to Dan Jaan, and around to Sidon, 7 And came to the stronghold of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites and of the Canaanites; and they went out to the south of Judah, even to Beersheba. 8 So when they had gone through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days. 9 And Joab gave the sum of the number of the people to the king: and there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men who drew the sword; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand. 10 And David's heart struck him after he had numbered the people. And David said to the LORD, I have sinned greatly in what I have done: and now, I beg You, O LORD, take away the iniquity of Your servant; for I have done very foolishly. 11 For when David arose in the morning, the word of the LORD came to the prophet Gad, David's seer, saying, 12 Go and say to David, Thus says the LORD, I offer you three things; choose one of them, that I may do it to you. 13 So Gad came to David, and told him, and said to him, Shall seven years of famine come to you in your land? or will you flee three months before your enemies, while they pursue you? or shall there be three days' pestilence in your land? Now consider, and see what answer I shall return to Him who sent me. 14 And David said to Gad, I am in great distress: let us fall now into the hand of the LORD, for His mercies are great; and do not let me fall into the hand of man. 15 So the LORD sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning until the appointed time, and seventy thousand men died from Dan to Beersheba.
  • 1 Chr 21:1-9 : 1 And Satan rose up against Israel and incited David to count Israel. 2 And David said to Joab and to the leaders of the people, Go, count Israel from Beersheba to Dan; and bring the count to me, that I may know it. 3 And Joab answered, May the LORD make his people a hundred times more than they are: but, my lord the king, are they not all my lord's servants? why then does my lord require this thing? why will he bring guilt upon Israel? 4 Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab. So Joab went out and went throughout all Israel, and came back to Jerusalem. 5 And Joab gave the total of the people to David. And all Israel were a million one hundred thousand men who drew sword: and Judah was four hundred and seventy thousand men who drew sword. 6 But he did not count Levi and Benjamin among them: for the king's word was detestable to Joab. 7 And God was displeased with this thing; therefore he struck Israel. 8 And David said to God, I have sinned greatly because I have done this thing: but now, I beseech you, remove the iniquity of your servant; for I have acted very foolishly. 9 And the LORD spoke to Gad, David's seer, saying, 10 Go and tell David, saying, Thus says the LORD, I offer you three things: choose one of them, that I may do it to you. 11 So Gad came to David, and said to him, Thus says the LORD, Choose 12 Either three years of famine; or three months to be defeated before your foes, while the sword of your enemies overtakes you; or else three days of the sword of the LORD, even the pestilence, in the land, and the angel of the LORD destroying throughout all the territory of Israel. Now therefore decide what word I shall bring back to him who sent me. 13 And David said to Gad, I am in great distress: let me fall now into the hand of the LORD; for his mercies are very great: but let me not fall into the hand of man. 14 So the LORD sent a pestilence upon Israel: and seventy thousand men of Israel fell. 15 And God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroying, the LORD looked, and relented of the evil, and said to the angel who destroyed, It is enough, stay your hand now. And the angel of the LORD stood by the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite. 16 And David lifted his eyes and saw the angel of the LORD standing between the earth and the heavens, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell on their faces. 17 And David said to God, Was it not I who commanded the people to be numbered? It is I who have sinned and done evil indeed; but as for these sheep, what have they done? Let your hand, I pray, O LORD my God, be on me, and on my father's house; but not on your people, that they should be afflicted.
