1 Chronicles 21
English: King James Version
21 And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel.
6 But Levi and Benjamin counted he not among them: for the king's word was abominable to Joab.
7 And God was displeased with this thing; therefore he smote Israel.
9 And the LORD spake unto Gad, David's seer, saying, 10 Go and tell David, saying, Thus saith the LORD, I offer thee three things: choose thee one of them, that I may do it unto thee.
11 So Gad came to David, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Choose thee 12 Either three years' famine; or three months to be destroyed before thy foes, while that the sword of thine enemies overtaketh thee; or else three days the sword of the LORD, even the pestilence, in the land, and the angel of the LORD destroying throughout all the coasts of Israel. Now therefore advise thyself what word I shall bring again to him that sent me.
14 So the LORD sent pestilence upon Israel: and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.
19 And David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spake in the name of the LORD.
25 So David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of gold by weight.
27 And the LORD commanded the angel; and he put up his sword again into the sheath thereof.
