• David’s Military Census

  • |1 Crônicas 21:1| Satan 1 a stood up against Israel and incited David b to count the people of Israel.

  • |1 Crônicas 21:2| So David said to Joab and the commanders of the troops, “Go and count Israel from Beer-sheba to Dan and bring a report to me so I can know their number.” c

  • |1 Crônicas 21:3| Joab replied, “May the LORD multiply the number of His people a hundred times over! d My lord the king, aren’t they all my lord’s servants? Why does my lord want to do this? Why should he bring guilt on Israel?”

  • |1 Crônicas 21:4| Yet the king’s order prevailed over Joab. So Joab left and traveled throughout Israel and then returned to Jerusalem.

  • |1 Crônicas 21:5| Joab gave the total troop registration to David. In all Israel there were 1,100,000 swordsmen and in Judah itself 470,000 swordsmen.

  • |1 Crônicas 21:6| But he did not include Levi and Benjamin in the count because the king’s command was detestable to him.

  • |1 Crônicas 21:7| This command was also evil in God’s sight, so He afflicted Israel.

  • |1 Crônicas 21:8| David said to God, “I have sinned greatly because I have done this thing. Now, please take away Your servant’s guilt, for I’ve been very foolish.” e
  • David’s Punishment

  • |1 Crônicas 21:10| “Go and say to David, ‘This is what the LORD says: I am offering you three choices. Choose one of them for yourself, and I will do it to you.’”
