2 Samuel 24:10-17

10And David's heartH3820 smote him after he had numbered the peopleH5971. And DavidH1732 saidH559 to Jehovah, I have sinnedH2398 greatly in what I have done; and nowH6258, I beseech thee, Jehovah, put away the iniquityH5771 of thy servantH5650; for I have done veryH3966 foolishlyH5528.

11And when DavidH1732 aroseH6965 in the morningH1242, the wordH1697 of Jehovah came to the prophetH5030 GadH1410, David's seerH2374, sayingH559,

12GoH1980 and sayH559 to DavidH1732, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah: I impose on thee threeH7969 [thingsH7969]; chooseH977 oneH259 of them that I may do it unto thee.

13And GadH1410 cameH935 to DavidH1732, and toldH5046 him, and saidH559 to him, Shall sevenH7651 yearsH8141 of famineH7458 comeH935 to thee in thy landH776? or wilt thou fleeH5127 threeH7969 monthsH2320 before thine adversaries while they pursueH7291 thee? or shall there beH1961 threeH7969 days' pestilenceH1698 in thy landH776? NowH6258 beH1961 aware and considerH7200 what wordH1697 I shall bringH935 again to him that sentH7971 me.

14And DavidH1732 saidH559 to GadH1410, I am in a great strait: let us fallH5307, I pray thee, into the handH3027 of Jehovah; for his mercies are great; but let me not fallH5307 into the handH3027 of manH120.

15And Jehovah sent a pestilenceH1698 upon IsraelH3478 from the morningH1242 even to the setH5414 timeH6256; and there diedH4191 of the peopleH5971 from DanH1835 even to Beer-sheba seventyH7657 thousandH505 menH376.

16And the angelH4397 stretchedH7971 out his handH3027 upon JerusalemH3389 to destroyH7843 it; but Jehovah repentedH5162 him of the evilH7451, and saidH559 to the angelH4397 that destroyedH7843 among the peopleH5971, It is enoughH7227: withdraw nowH6258 thine handH3027. And the angelH4397 of Jehovah wasH1961 by the threshing-floor of AraunahH728 the JebusiteH2983.

17And DavidH1732 spoke to Jehovah when he sawH7200 the angelH4397 that smote among the peopleH5971, and saidH559, Behold, it is I that have sinnedH2398, and it is I that have committed iniquity; but these sheepH6629, what have they done? let thy handH3027, I pray thee, beH1961 on me, and on my father's houseH1004!
