2 Samuel 24:1-4

1And again the angerH639 of Jehovah was kindled against IsraelH3478, and he moved DavidH1732 against them, sayingH559, Go, numberH4487 IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063.

2And the kingH4428 saidH559 to JoabH3097 the captain of the host, who was with him, Go now to and fro through all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, from DanH1835 even to Beer-sheba, and numberH4557 ye the peopleH5971, that I may knowH3045 the sum of the peopleH5971.

3And JoabH3097 saidH559 unto the kingH4428, Now Jehovah thy GodH430 addH3254 unto the peopleH5971, howH4100 many soever they may be, a hundredfold; and may the eyesH5869 of my lord the kingH4428 seeH7200 it: but whyH4100 doth my lord the kingH4428 delightH2654 in this thingH1697?

4Notwithstanding, the king’sH4428 wordH1697 prevailedH2388 against JoabH3097, and against the captains of the host. And JoabH3097 and the captains of the host wentH3318 out from the presenceH6440 of the kingH4428, to number the peopleH5971 of IsraelH3478.
