  9. 1 Chronicles 21:1-3

1 Chronicles 21:1-3

  1. And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel.

  2. And David said to Joab and to the rulers of the people, Go, number Israel from Beersheba even to Dan; and bring the number of them to me, that I may know it.

  3. And Joab answered, The LORD make his people an hundred times so many more as they be: but, my lord the king, are they not all my lord's servants? why then doth my lord require this thing? why will he be a cause of trespass to Israel?
