2 Samuel 24:4-9
4However, the king overruled Joab and the commanders of the army. So they left the king ⌞in order⌟ to count the people of Israel.
5They crossed the Jordan River and camped at Aroer, south of the city in the middle of the valley. Then they went to Gad and to Jazer.
6They went to Gilead and to Tahtim Hodshi and then to Dan Jaan and around toward Sidon.
7They went to the fortified city of Tyre and all the cities of the Hivites and the Canaanites. Then they went to Beersheba in the Negev of Judah.
8When they had covered the whole country, they came to Jerusalem after 9 months and 20 days.
9Joab reported the census figures to the king: In Israel there were 800,000 able-bodied men who could serve in the army, and in Judah there were 500,000.
