1 Chronicles 21:1-8

And Satan
<07854>
stood up
<05975> (8799)
against Israel
<03478>_,
and provoked
<05496> (8686)
David
<01732>
to number
<04487> (8800)
Israel
<03478>_.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Joab
<03097>
and to the rulers
<08269>
of the people
<05971>_,
Go
<03212> (8798)_,
number
<05608> (8798)
Israel
<03478>
from Beersheba
<0884>
even to Dan
<01835>_;
and bring
<0935> (8685)
the number
<04557>
of them to me, that I may know
<03045> (8799)
[it].
And Joab
<03097>
answered
<0559> (8799)_,
The LORD
<03068>
make his people
<05971>
an hundred
<03967>
times
<06471>
so many more
<03254> (8686)
as they
<01992>
[be]: but, my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>_,
[are] they not all my lord's
<0113>
servants
<05650>_?
why then doth my lord
<0113>
require
<01245> (8762)
this thing? why will he be a cause of trespass
<0819>
to Israel
<03478>_?
Nevertheless the king's
<04428>
word
<01697>
prevailed
<02388> (8804)
against Joab
<03097>_.
Wherefore Joab
<03097>
departed
<03318> (8799)_,
and went
<01980> (8691)
throughout all Israel
<03478>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And Joab
<03097>
gave
<05414> (8799)
the sum
<04557>
of the number
<04662>
of the people
<05971>
unto David
<01732>_.
And all [they of] Israel
<03478>
were a thousand
<0505>
thousand
<0505>
and an hundred
<03967>
thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>
that drew
<08025> (8802)
sword
<02719>_:
and Judah
<03063>
[was] four
<0702>
hundred
<03967>
threescore and ten
<07657>
thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>
that drew
<08025> (8802)
sword
<02719>_.
But Levi
<03878>
and Benjamin
<01144>
counted
<06485> (8804)
he not among
<08432>
them: for the king's
<04428>
word
<01697>
was abominable
<08581> (8738)
to Joab
<03097>_.
And God
<0430>
was displeased
<03415> (8799) <05869>
with this thing
<01697>_;
therefore he smote
<05221> (8686)
Israel
<03478>_.
{And...: Heb. And it was evil in the eyes of the LORD concerning this thing}
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto God
<0430>_,
I have sinned
<02398> (8804)
greatly
<03966>_,
because I have done
<06213> (8804)
this thing
<01697>_:
but now, I beseech thee, do away
<05674> (8685)
the iniquity
<05771>
of thy servant
<05650>_;
for I have done very
<03966>
foolishly
<05528> (8738)_.
