Wherefore Joab departed, and went throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem. <\/br><strong>5<\/strong> And Joab gave up the sum of the numbering of the people unto David. And all they of Israel were a thousand thousand and a hundred thousand men that drew sword: and Judah was four hundred threescore and ten thousand men that drew sword. <\/br><strong>6<\/strong> But Levi and Benjamin counted he not among them; for the king&#8217;s word was abominable to Joab. <\/br><strong>7<\/strong> And God was displeased with this thing; therefore he smote Israel. <\/br><strong>8<\/strong> And David said unto God, I have sinned greatly, in that I have done this thing: but now, put away, I beseech thee, the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly. <\/br><strong>9<\/strong> And Jehovah spake unto Gad, David&#8217;s seer, saying, <\/br><strong>10<\/strong> Go and speak unto David, saying, Thus saith Jehovah, I offer thee three things: choose thee one of them, that I may do it unto thee. <\/br><strong>11<\/strong> So Gad came to David, and said unto him, Thus saith Jehovah, Take which thou wilt: <\/br><strong>12<\/strong> either three years of famine; or three months to be consumed before thy foes, while the sword of thine enemies overtaketh thee; or else three days the sword of Jehovah, even pestilence in the land, and the angel of Jehovah destroying throughout all the borders of Israel. Now therefore consider what answer I shall return to him that sent me. <\/br><strong>13<\/strong> And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let me fall, I pray, into the hand of Jehovah; for very great are his mercies: and let me not fall into the hand of man. <\/br><strong>14<\/strong> So Jehovah sent a pestilence upon Israel; and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men. <\/br><strong>15<\/strong> And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was about to destroy, Jehovah beheld, and he repented him of the evil, and said to the destroying angel, It is enough; now stay thy hand. And the angel of Jehovah was standing by the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite. <\/br><strong>16<\/strong> And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of Jehovah standing between earth and heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces. <\/br><strong>17<\/strong> And David said unto God, Is it not I that commanded the people to be numbered? even I it is that have sinned and done very wickedly; but these sheep, what have they done? let thy hand, I pray thee, O Jehovah my God, be against me, and against my father&#8217;s house; but not against thy people, that they should be plagued. <\/br><strong>18<\/strong> Then the angel of Jehovah commanded Gad to say to David, that David should go up, and rear an altar unto Jehovah in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite. <\/br><strong>19<\/strong> And David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spake in the name of Jehovah. <\/br><strong>20<\/strong> And Ornan turned back, and saw the angel; and his four sons that were with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat. <\/br><strong>21<\/strong> And as David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshing-floor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground. <\/br><strong>22<\/strong> Then David said to Ornan, Give me the place of this threshing-floor, that I may build thereon an altar unto Jehovah: for the full price shalt thou give it me, that the plague may be stayed from the people. <\/br><strong>23<\/strong> And Ornan said unto David, Take it to thee, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes: lo, I give `thee&#8217; the oxen for burnt-offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meal-offering; I give it all. <\/br><strong>24<\/strong> And king David said to Ornan, Nay; but I will verily buy it for the full price: for I will not take that which is thine for Jehovah, nor offer a burnt-offering without cost. <\/br><strong>25<\/strong> So David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of gold by weight. <\/br><strong>26<\/strong> And David built there an altar unto Jehovah, and offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings, and called upon Jehovah; and he answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of burnt-offering. <\/br><strong>27<\/strong> And Jehovah commanded the angel; and he put up his sword again into the sheath thereof. <\/br><strong>28<\/strong> At that time, when David saw that Jehovah had answered him in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there. <\/br><strong>29<\/strong> For the tabernacle of Jehovah, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt-offering, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon. <\/br><strong>30<\/strong> But David could not go before it to inquire of God; for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of Jehovah. <\/br><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n    google_ad_client = \"ca-pub-4647651612525789\";\n    google_ad_slot = \"6844414800\";\n    google_ad_width = 320;\n
