1 Chronicles 21:16-19

16And DavidH1732 liftedH5375 up his eyesH5869, and sawH7200 the angelH4397 of Jehovah standH5975 between the earthH776 and the heavensH8064, and his swordH2719 drawnH8025 in his handH3027, stretchedH5186 out over JerusalemH3389. And DavidH1732 and the eldersH2205, clothed in sackclothH8242, fellH5307 on their facesH6440.

17And DavidH1732 saidH559 to 1GodH430, Is it not I that commanded the peopleH5971 to beH1961 numberedH4487? It is I that have sinnedH2398 and done evilH7489; but these sheepH6629, what have they done? Let thy handH3027, I pray thee, Jehovah my 2GodH430, beH1961 on me and on my father's houseH1004; but not on thy peopleH5971, that they should beH1961 smitten.

18And the angelH4397 of Jehovah commanded GadH1410 to sayH559 to DavidH1732, that DavidH1732 should goH5927 up and rear an altarH4196 to Jehovah in the threshing-floor of OrnanH771 the JebusiteH2983.

19And DavidH1732 wentH5927 up at the saying of GadH1410, which he had spokenH1696 in the nameH8034 of Jehovah.
