1 Chronicles 21:15-18
15And GodH430 sentH7971 an angelH4397 unto JerusalemH3389 to destroyH7843 it: and as he was aboutH5921 to destroyH7843, the LORDH3068 beheld, and he repentedH5162 him of the evilH7451, and saidH559 to the destroyingH7843 angelH4397, It is enoughH7227; nowH6258 stayH5975 thine handH3027. And the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 stoodH5975 by the threshing-floor of OrnanH771 the JebusiteH2983.
16And DavidH1732 liftedH5375 upH5375 his eyesH5869, and sawH7200 the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 standH5975 betweenH996 the earthH776 and the heavenH8064, having a drawnH8025 swordH2719 in his handH3027 stretchedH5186 outH5186 everH5375 JerusalemH3389. Then DavidH1732 and the eldersH2205, clothedH3680 in sackclothH8242, fellH5307 uponH5921 their facesH6440.
17And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto GodH430, Is it notH3808 I that commandedH559 the peopleH5971 to be numberedH4487? evenH3808 I it is that have sinnedH2398 and doneH6213 very wickedly; but theseH428 sheepH6629, whatH4100 have they doneH6213? letH4994 thine handH3027, I prayH4994 thee, O LORDH3068 my GodH430, be againstH413 meH413, and againstH413 my father’sH1 houseH1004; but notH3808 againstH413 thy peopleH5971, that they should be plaguedH4046.
18Then the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 commandedH559 GadH1410 to sayH559 to DavidH1732, that DavidH1732 should goH5927 upH5927, and rear an altarH4196 unto the LORDH3068 in the threshing-floor of OrnanH771 the JebusiteH2983.
