1 Chronicles 21:1-7
1And Satan stoodH5975 up against IsraelH3478, and moved DavidH1732 to numberH4487 IsraelH3478.
2And DavidH1732 saidH559 to JoabH3097 and to the princesH8269 of the peopleH5971, GoH935, numberH4557 IsraelH3478 from Beer-sheba even to DanH1835; and bringH935 the numberH4557 of them to me, that I may knowH3045 it.
3And JoabH3097 saidH559, Jehovah addH3254 to his peopleH5971, howH4100 many soever they beH1961, a hundredfold: are they not all, my lord O kingH4428, my lord's servantsH5650? whyH4100 does my lord requireH1245 this thing? whyH4100 should he becomeH1961 a trespass to IsraelH3478?
4But the king's wordH1697 prevailedH2388 against JoabH3097; and JoabH3097 departed, and wentH1980 through all IsraelH3478, and cameH935 [again] to JerusalemH3389.
5And JoabH3097 gaveH5414 the sum of the numberH4557 of the peopleH5971 to DavidH1732. And all they of IsraelH3478 wereH1961 eleven hundredH3967 thousandH505 menH376 that drewH8025 swordH2719; and of JudahH3063, fourH702 hundredH3967 and seventyH7657 thousandH505 menH376 that drewH8025 swordH2719.
6But LeviH3878 and BenjaminH1144 he did not count among them; for the king's wordH1697 was abominable to JoabH3097.
7And 1GodH430 was displeased on account of this thingH1697, and he smote IsraelH3478.
