2 Samuel 24
Darby Unrevidierte Elberfelder
1Und der Zorn Jehovas entbrannte abermals wider Israel; und er reizte David wider sie, indem er sprach: Gehe hin, zähle Israel und Juda!
2Da sprach der König zu Joab, dem Heerobersten, der bei ihm war: Gehe doch umher durch alle Stämme Israels, von Dan bis Beerseba, und musterte das Volk, damit ich die Zahl des Volkes wisse.
3Und Joab sprach zu dem König: Es möge Jehova, dein Gott, zu dem Volke, so viele ihrer auch sind, hundertmal hinzufügen, während die Augen meines Herrn, des Königs, es sehen! Aber warum hat mein Herr, der König, Gefallen an dieser Sache?
4Aber das Wort des Königs blieb fest gegen Joab und gegen die Obersten des Heeres. Und Joab und die Obersten des Heeres zogen aus vor dem König, um das Volk Israel zu mustern.
5Und sie gingen über den Jordan und lagerten sich zu Aroer, rechts von der Stadt, die mitten im Flußtale von Gad liegt, und nach Jaser hin.
6Und sie kamen nach Gilead und in das Land Tachtim-Hodschi; und sie kamen nach Dan-Jaan und in die Umgegend von Zidon;
7und sie kamen zu der festen Stadt Zor und zu allen Städten der Hewiter und der Kanaaniter; und sie zogen hinaus in den Süden von Juda nach Beerseba.
8Und sie zogen umher durch das ganze Land, und kamen am Ende von neun Monaten und zwanzig Tagen nach Jerusalem zurück.
9Und Joab gab die Zahl des gemusterten Volkes dem König an; und es waren in Israel achthunderttausend Kriegsmänner, die das Schwert zogen, und der Männer von Juda fünfhunderttausend Mann.
10Aber dem David schlug sein Herz, nachdem er das Volk gezählt hatte; und David sprach zu Jehova: Ich habe sehr gesündigt in dem, was ich getan habe; und nun, Jehova, laß doch die Ungerechtigkeit deines Knechtes vorübergehen, denn ich habe sehr töricht gehandelt!
11Und als David am Morgen aufstand, da geschah das Wort Jehovas zu Gad, dem Propheten, dem Seher Davids, indem er sprach:
12Gehe hin und rede zu David: So spricht Jehova: Dreierlei lege ich dir vor; wähle dir eines davon, daß ich es dir tue.
13Und Gad kam zu David und tat es ihm kund und sprach zu ihm: Sollen dir sieben Jahre Hungersnot in dein Land kommen? Oder willst du drei Monate vor deinen Feinden fliehen, indem sie dir nachjagen? Oder soll drei Tage Pest in deinem Lande sein? Nun wisse und sieh, was für eine Antwort ich dem zurückbringen soll, der mich gesandt hat.
14Und David sprach zu Gad: Mir ist sehr angst! Mögen wir doch in die Hand Jehovas fallen, denn seine Erbarmungen sind groß; aber in die Hand der Menschen laß mich nicht fallen!
15Da sandte Jehova eine Pest unter Israel, vom Morgen an bis zur bestimmten Zeit; und es starben von dem Volke, von Dan bis Beerseba, siebzigtausend Mann.
16Und als der Engel seine Hand gegen Jerusalem ausstreckte, um es zu verderben, da reute Jehova des Übels, und er sprach zu dem Engel, der unter dem Volke verderbte: Genug! Ziehe jetzt deine Hand ab. Der Engel Jehovas war aber bei der Tenne Arawnas, des Jebusiters.
17Und als David den Engel sah, der unter dem Volke schlug, sprach er zu Jehova und sagte: Siehe, ich habe gesündigt, und ich habe verkehrt gehandelt; aber diese Schafe, was haben sie getan? Es sei doch deine Hand wider mich, und wider das Haus meines Vaters!
18Und Gad kam zu David an selbigem Tage und sprach zu ihm: Gehe hinauf, errichte Jehova einen Altar auf der Tenne Arawnas, des Jebusiters.
19Und David ging hinauf, nach dem Worte Gads, so wie Jehova geboten hatte.
20Und Arawna blickte hin und sah den König und seine Knechte zu sich herüberkommen; da ging Arawna hinaus und beugte sich vor dem König nieder, mit seinem Antlitz zur Erde.
21Und Arawna sprach: Warum kommt mein Herr, der König, zu seinem Knechte? Und David sprach: Die Tenne von dir zu kaufen, um Jehova einen Altar zu bauen, damit die Plage von dem Volke abgewehrt werde.
22Da sprach Arawna zu David: Mein Herr, der König, nehme und opfere, was gut ist in seinen Augen; siehe, die Rinder sind zum Brandopfer, und die Dreschwagen und die Geschirre der Rinder zum Holz:
23alles das, o König, gibt Arawna dem König. Und Arawna sprach zu dem König: Jehova, dein Gott, nehme dich wohlgefällig an!
24Aber der König sprach zu Arawna: Nein, sondern kaufen will ich es von dir um einen Preis, und ich will Jehova, meinem Gott, nicht umsonst Brandopfer opfern. Und David kaufte die Tenne und die Rinder um fünfzig Sekel Silber.
25Und David baute daselbst Jehova einen Altar, und opferte Brandopfer und Friedensopfer. Und Jehova ließ sich für das Land erbitten, und die Plage wurde von Israel abgewehrt.
Reina-Valera 1909
1Y VOLVIÓ el furor de Jehová á encenderse contra Israel, é incitó á David contra ellos á que dijese: Ve, cuenta á Israel y á Judá.
2Y dijo el rey á Joab, general del ejército que tenía consigo: Rodea todas las tribus de Israel, desde Dan hasta Beer-seba, y contad el pueblo, para que yo sepa el número de la gente.
3Y Joab respondió al rey: Añada Jehová tu Dios al pueblo cien veces tanto como son, y que lo vea mi señor el rey; mas ¿para qué quiere esto mi señor el rey?
4Empero la palabra del rey pudo más que Joab, y que los capitanes del ejército. Salió pues Joab, con los capitanes del ejército, de delante del rey, para contar el pueblo de Israel.
5Y pasando el Jordán asentaron en Aroer, á la mano derecha de la ciudad que está en medio de la arroyada de Gad y junto á Jazer.
6Después vinieron á Galaad, y á la tierra baja de Absi: y de allí vinieron á Dan-jaán y alrededor de Sidón.
7Y vinieron luego á la fortaleza de Tiro, y á todas las ciudades de los Heveos y de los Cananeos; y salieron al mediodía de Judá, á Beer-seba.
8Y después que hubieron andado toda la tierra, volvieron á Jerusalem al cabo de nueve meses y veinte días.
9Y Joab dió la cuenta del número del pueblo al rey; y fueron los de Israel ochocientos mil hombres fuertes que sacaban espada; y de los de Judá quinientos mil hombres.
10Y después que David hubo contado el pueblo, punzóle su corazón; y dijo David á Jehová: Yo he pecado gravemente por haber hecho esto; mas ahora, oh Jehová, ruégote que quites el pecado de tu siervo, porque yo he obrado muy neciamente.
11Y por la mañana, cuando David se hubo levantado, fué palabra de Jehová á Gad profeta, vidente de David, diciendo:
12Ve, y di á David: Así ha dicho Jehová: Tres cosas te ofrezco: tú te escogerás una de ellas, la cual yo haga.
13Vino pues Gad á David, é intimóle, y díjole: ¿Quieres que te vengan siete años de hambre en tu tierra? ¿ó que huyas tres meses delante de tus enemigos, y que ellos te persigan? ¿ó que tres días haya pestilencia en tu tierra? Piensa ahora, y mira qué responderé al que me ha enviado.
14Entonces David dijo á Gad: En grande angustia estoy: ruego que caiga en la mano de Jehová, porque sus miseraciones son muchas, y que no caiga yo en manos de hombres.
15Y envió Jehová pestilencia á Israel desde la mañana hasta el tiempo señalado: y murieron del pueblo, desde Dan hasta Beer-seba, setenta mil hombres.
16Y como el ángel extendió su mano sobre Jerusalem para destruirla, Jehová se arrepintió de aquel mal, y dijo al ángel que destruía el pueblo: Basta ahora; detén tu mano. Entonces el ángel de Jehová estaba junto á la era de Arauna Jebuseo.
17Y David dijo á Jehová, cuando vió al ángel que hería al pueblo: Yo pequé, yo hice la maldad: ¿qué hicieron estas ovejas? Ruégote que tu mano se torne contra mí, y contra la casa de mi padre.
18Y Gad vino á David aquel día, y díjole: Sube, y haz un altar á Jehová en la era de Arauna Jebuseo.
19Y subió David, conforme al dicho de Gad, que Jehová le había mandado.
20Y mirando Arauna, vió al rey y á sus siervos que pasaban á él. Saliendo entonces Arauna, inclinóse delante del rey hacia tierra.
21Y Arauna dijo: ¿Por qué viene mi señor el rey á su siervo? Y David respondió: Para comprar de ti la era, para edificar altar á Jehová, á fin de que la mortandad cese del pueblo.
22Y Arauna dijo á David: Tome y sacrifique mi señor el rey lo que bien le pareciere; he aquí bueyes para el holocausto; y trillos y otros pertrechos de bueyes para leña:
23Todo lo da como un rey Arauna al rey. Luego dijo Arauna al rey: Jehová tu Dios te sea propicio.
24Y el rey dijo á Arauna: No, sino por precio te lo compraré; porque no ofreceré á Jehová mi Dios holocaustos por nada. Entonces David compró la era y los bueyes por cincuenta siclos de plata.
25Y edificó allí David un altar á Jehová, y sacrificó holocaustos y pacíficos; y Jehová se aplacó con la tierra, y cesó la plaga de Israel.
King James Version
1And again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them to say, Go, number Israel and Judah.
2For the king said to Joab the captain of the host, which was with him, Go now through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beer-sheba, and number ye the people, that I may know the number of the people.
3And Joab said unto the king, Now the LORD thy God add unto the people, how many soever they be, an hundredfold, and that the eyes of my lord the king may see it: but why doth my lord the king delight in this thing?
4Notwithstanding the king’s word prevailed against Joab, and against the captains of the host. And Joab and the captains of the host went out from the presence of the king, to number the people of Israel.
5And they passed over Jordan, and pitched in Aroer, on the right side of the city that lieth in the midst of the river of Gad, and toward Jazer:
6Then they came to Gilead, and to the land of Tahtim-hodshi; and they came to Dan-jaan, and about to Zidon,
7And came to the strong hold of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites, and of the Canaanites: and they went out to the south of Judah, even to Beer-sheba.
8So when they had gone through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.
9And Joab gave up the sum of the number of the people unto the king: and there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men that drew the sword; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men.
10And David’s heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And David said unto the LORD, I have sinned greatly in that I have done: and now, I beseech thee, O LORD, take away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.
11For when David was up in the morning, the word of the LORD came unto the prophet Gad, David’s seer, saying,
12Go and say unto David, Thus saith the LORD, I offer thee three things; choose thee one of them, that I may do it unto thee.
13So Gad came to David, and told him, and said unto him, Shall seven years of famine come unto thee in thy land? or wilt thou flee three months before thine enemies, while they pursue thee? or that there be three days’ pestilence in thy land? now advise, and see what answer I shall return to him that sent me.
14And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let us fall now into the hand of the LORD; for his mercies are great: and let me not fall into the hand of man.
15So the LORD sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning even to the time appointed: and there died of the people from Dan even to Beer-sheba seventy thousand men.
16And when the angel stretched out his hand upon Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed the people, It is enough: stay now thine hand. And the angel of the LORD was by the threshingplace of Araunah the Jebusite.
17And David spake unto the LORD when he saw the angel that smote the people, and said, Lo, I have sinned, and I have done wickedly: but these sheep, what have they done? let thine hand, I pray thee, be against me, and against my father’s house.
18And Gad came that day to David, and said unto him, Go up, rear an altar unto the LORD in the threshingfloor of Araunah the Jebusite.
19And David, according to the saying of Gad, went up as the LORD commanded.
20And Araunah looked, and saw the king and his servants coming on toward him: and Araunah went out, and bowed himself before the king on his face upon the ground.
21And Araunah said, Wherefore is my lord the king come to his servant? And David said, To buy the threshingfloor of thee, to build an altar unto the LORD, that the plague may be stayed from the people.
22And Araunah said unto David, Let my lord the king take and offer up what seemeth good unto him: behold, here be oxen for burnt sacrifice, and threshing instruments and other instruments of the oxen for wood.
23All these things did Araunah, as a king, give unto the king. And Araunah said unto the king, The LORD thy God accept thee.
24And the king said unto Araunah, Nay; but I will surely buy it of thee at a price: neither will I offer burnt offerings unto the LORD my God of that which doth cost me nothing. So David bought the threshingfloor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
25And David built there an altar unto the LORD, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So the LORD was intreated for the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel.
World English Bible
1Again the LORD’s anger burned against Israel, and he moved David against them, saying, “Go, count Israel and Judah.”
2The king said to Joab the captain of the army, who was with him, “Now go back and forth through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beersheba, and count the people, that I may know the sum of the people.”
3Joab said to the king, “Now may the LORD your God add to the people, however many they may be, one hundred times; and may the eyes of my lord the king see it. But why does my lord the king delight in this thing?”
4Notwithstanding, the king’s word prevailed against Joab and against the captains of the army. Joab and the captains of the army went out from the presence of the king to count the people of Israel.
5They passed over the Jordan and encamped in Aroer, on the right side of the city that is in the middle of the valley of Gad, and to Jazer;
6then they came to Gilead and to the land of Tahtim Hodshi; and they came to Dan Jaan and around to Sidon,
7and came to the stronghold of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites and of the Canaanites; and they went out to the south of Judah, at Beersheba.
8So when they had gone back and forth through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.
9Joab gave up the sum of the counting of the people to the king; and there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men who drew the sword, and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men.
10David’s heart struck him after he had counted the people. David said to the LORD, “I have sinned greatly in that which I have done. But now, the LORD, put away, I beg you, the iniquity of your servant; for I have done very foolishly.”
11When David rose up in the morning, the LORD’s word came to the prophet Gad, David’s seer, saying,
12“Go and speak to David, ‘The LORD says, “I offer you three things. Choose one of them, that I may do it to you.”’”
13So Gad came to David, and told him, saying, “Shall seven years of famine come to you in your land? Or will you flee three months before your foes while they pursue you? Or shall there be three days’ pestilence in your land? Now answer, and consider what answer I shall return to him who sent me.”
14David said to Gad, “I am in distress. Let us fall now into the LORD’s hand, for his mercies are great. Let me not fall into man’s hand.”
15So the LORD sent a pestilence on Israel from the morning even to the appointed time; and seventy thousand men died of the people from Dan even to Beersheba.
16When the angel stretched out his hand toward Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD relented of the disaster, and said to the angel who destroyed the people, “It is enough. Now withdraw your hand.” The LORD’s angel was by the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
17David spoke to the LORD when he saw the angel who struck the people, and said, “Behold, I have sinned, and I have done perversely; but these sheep, what have they done? Please let your hand be against me, and against my father’s house.”
18Gad came that day to David and said to him, “Go up, build an altar to the LORD on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.”
19David went up according to the saying of Gad, as the LORD commanded.
20Araunah looked out, and saw the king and his servants coming on toward him. Then Araunah went out and bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.
21Araunah said, “Why has my lord the king come to his servant?” David said, “To buy your threshing floor, to build an altar to the LORD, that the plague may be stopped from afflicting the people.”
22Araunah said to David, “Let my lord the king take and offer up what seems good to him. Behold, the cattle for the burnt offering, and the threshing sledges and the yokes of the oxen for the wood.
23All this, O king, does Araunah give to the king.” Araunah said to the king, “May the LORD your God accept you.”
24The king said to Araunah, “No, but I will most certainly buy it from you for a price. I will not offer burnt offerings to the LORD my God which cost me nothing.” So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
25David built an altar to the LORD there, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So the LORD was entreated for the land, and the plague was removed from Israel.
