1 Chronicles 21:1-6

1And SatanH7854 stood upH5975 against IsraelH3478, and temptedH5496 DavidH1732 to numberH4487 IsraelH3478. 2And DavidH1732 saidH559 to JoabH3097 and to the rulersH8269 of the peopleH5971, GoH3212, numberH5608 IsraelH3478 from BeershebaH884 even to DanH1835; and bringH935 the numberH4557 of them to me, that I may knowH3045 it . 3And JoabH3097 answeredH559, The LORDH3068 make his peopleH5971 an hundredH3967 timesH6471 moreH3254 than theyH1992 are : but, my lordH113 the kingH4428, are they not all my lord’sH113 servantsH5650? why then doth my lordH113 requireH1245 this thing? why will he be a cause of trespassH819 to IsraelH3478? 4Nevertheless the king’sH4428 wordH1697 prevailedH2388 against JoabH3097. Therefore JoabH3097 departedH3318, and wentH1980 throughout all IsraelH3478, and cameH935 to JerusalemH3389. 5And JoabH3097 gaveH5414 the sumH4557 of the numberH4662 of the peopleH5971 to DavidH1732. And all they of IsraelH3478 were a millionH505 and an hundredH3967 thousandH505 menH376 that drewH8025 swordH2719: and JudahH3063 was fourH702 hundredH3967 and seventyH7657 thousandH505 menH376 that drewH8025 swordH2719. 6But LeviH3878 and BenjaminH1144 he countedH6485 not amongH8432 them: for the king’sH4428 wordH1697 was abominableH8581 to JoabH3097.
