| 21:8 |
And David said unto God, I have sinned greatly, becausein that I have done this thing: but now, put away, I beseech thee, do away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly. |
| 21:10 |
Go and tellspeak unto David, saying, Thus saith the Lord, I offer thee three things:; choose thee one of them, that I may do it unto thee. |
| 21:11 |
So Gad came to David, and said unto him, Thus saith the Lord, ChooseTake theewhich thou wilt; |
| 21:12 |
Eithereither three years of famine; or three months to be destroyedconsumed before thy foes, while that the sword of thine enemies overtaketh thee; or else three days the sword of the Lord, even the pestilence, in the land, and the angel of the Lord destroying throughout all the coasts of Israel. Now therefore adviseconsider thyself what wordanswer I shall bringreturn again to him that sent me. |
| 21:13 |
And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let me fall now into the hand of the Lord; for very great are his mercies: butand let me not fall into the hand of man. |
| 21:14 |
So the Lord sent a pestilence upon Israel: and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men. |
| 21:15 |
And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroyingabout to destroy, the Lord beheld, and he repented him of the evil, and said to the destroying angel that destroyed, It is enough,; now stay now thine hand. And the angel of the Lord stood by the threshingfloorthreshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite. |
| 21:16 |
And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the Lord stand between the earth and the heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out overever Jerusalem. Then David and the elders of Israel, who were clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces. |
| 21:17 |
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 evilvery indeedwickedly; but as for these sheep, what have they done? let thine hand, I pray thee, O Lord my God, be onagainst me, and onagainst my fathers house; but not onagainst thy people, that they should be plagued. |
| 21:18 |
Then the angel of the Lord commanded Gad to say to David, that David should go up, and setrear up an altar unto the Lord in the threshingfloorthreshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite. |
| 21:20 |
And Ornan turned back, and saw the angel; and his four sons that were with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat. |
| 21:21 |
And as David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshingfloorthreshing floor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground. |
| 21:22 |
Then David said to Ornan, GrantGive me the place of this threshingfloorthreshing floor, that I may build thereon an altar therein unto the Lord: thoufor shaltthe grantfull itprice meshalt forthou thegive fullit priceme: that the plague may be stayed from the people. |
| 21:23 |
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 the oxen also for burnt offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meatmeal offering; I give it all. |
| 21:24 |
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 the Lord, nor offer a burnt offeringsoffering without cost. |
| 21:28 |
At that time, when David saw that the Lord had answered him in the threshingfloorthreshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there. |
| 21:29 |
For the tabernacle of the Lord, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of the burnt offering, were at that seasontime in the high place at Gibeon. |
| 21:30 |
But David could not go before it to enquireinquire of God: for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of the Lord. |
| 22:1 |
Then David said, This is the house of the Lord God, and this is the altar of the burnt offering for Israel. |
| 22:3 |
And David prepared iron in abundance for the nails for the doors of the gates, and for the joiningscouplings; and brass in abundance without weight; |
| 22:4 |

And David said, Solomon my son is young and tender, and the house that is to be builded for the Lord must be exceeding magnifical, of fame and of glory throughout all countries: I will therefore now make preparation for it. So David prepared abundantly before his death. |
| 22:6 |
Then he called for Solomon his son, and charged him to build an house for the Lord, the God of Israel. |
| 22:7 |
And David said to Solomon, Myhis son, asAs for me, it was in my mindheart to build an house unto the name of the Lord my God:. |
| 22:8 |
But the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Thou hast shed blood abundantly, and hast made great wars: thou shalt not build an house unto my name, because thou hast shed much blood upon the earth in my sight.: |
| 22:9 |
Behold, a son shall be born to thee, who shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about: for his name shall be Solomon, and I will give peace and quietness unto Israel in his days.: |
| 22:10 |
Hehe shall build an house for my name; and he shall be my son, and I will be his father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever. |
| 22:11 |
Now, my son, the Lord be with thee; and prosper thou, and build the house of the Lord thy God, as he hath saidspoken ofconcerning thee. |
| 22:12 |
Only the Lord give thee wisdomdiscretion and understanding, and give thee charge concerning Israel,; that so thou mayest keep the law of the Lord thy God. |
| 22:13 |
Then shalt thou prosper, if thou takestobserve heed to fulfildo the statutes and judgmentsthe judgements which the Lord charged Moses with concerning Israel: be strong, and of good courage; dreadfear not, norneither be dismayed. |
| 22:14 |
Now, behold, in my troubleaffliction I have prepared for the house of the Lord an hundred thousand talents of gold, and a thousand thousand talents of silver; and of brass and iron without weight; for it is in abundance: timber also and stone have I prepared; and thou mayest add thereto. |
| 22:15 |
Moreover there are workmen with thee in abundance, hewers and workers of stone and timber, and all mannermen ofthat are cunning menin forany every manner of work.; |
| 22:16 |
Ofof the gold, the silver, and the brass, and the iron, there is no number.; Arisearise therefore, and be doing, and the Lord be with thee. |
| 22:18 |
Is not the Lord your God with you? and hath he not given you rest on every side? for he hath givendelivered the inhabitants of the land into mine hand; and the land is subdued before the Lord, and before his people. |
| 22:19 |
Now set your heart and your soul to seek after the Lord your God; arise therefore, and build ye the sanctuary of the Lord God, to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the holy vessels of God, into the house that is to be built to the name of the Lord. |
| 23:1 |
SoNow when David was old and full of days,; and he made Solomon his son king over Israel. |
| 23:3 |
NowAnd the Levites were numbered from the age of thirty years old and upward: and their number by their polls, man by man, was thirty and eight thousand. |

Of whichthese, twenty and four thousand were to setoversee forward the work of the house of the Lord; and six thousand were officers and judges: |
| 23:5 |
Moreoverand four thousand were portersdoorkeepers; and four thousand praised the Lord with the instruments which I made, said David, to praise therewith. |

| 23:26 |
Andand also unto the Levites; they shall no more have need to carry the tabernacle, norand anyall the vessels of it for the service thereof. |
| 23:27 |
For by the last words of David the Levitessons of Levi were numbered, from twenty years old and above:upward. |
