1 Chronicles 21:16-19

16And DavidH1732 lifted upH5375 his eyesH5869, and sawH7200 the angelH4397 of YhwhH3068 standH5975 between the earthH776 and the heavenH8064, having a drawnH8025 swordH2719 in his handH3027 stretched outH5186 over JerusalemH3389. Then DavidH1732 and the eldersH2205 of Israel, who were clothedH3680 in sackclothH8242, fellH5307 upon their facesH6440. 17And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto GodH430, Is it not I that commandedH559 the peopleH5971 to be numberedH4487? even I it is that have sinnedH2398 and done evilH7489 indeedH7489; but as for these sheepH6629, what have they doneH6213? let thine handH3027, I pray thee, O YhwhH3068 my GodH430, be on me, and on my father’sH1 houseH1004; but not on thy peopleH5971, that they should be plaguedH4046.

18Then the angelH4397 of YhwhH3068 commandedH559 GadH1410 to sayH559 to DavidH1732, that DavidH1732 should go upH5927, and set upH6965 an altarH4196 unto YhwhH3068 in the threshingfloorH1637 of OrnanH771 the JebusiteH2983. 19And DavidH1732 went upH5927 at the sayingH1697 of GadH1410, which he spakeH1696 in the nameH8034 of YhwhH3068.
