2 Samuel 24:11-15

2 Samuel 24:11-15 NCV

When David got up in the morning, the LORD spoke his word to Gad, who was a prophet and David’s seer. The LORD told Gad, “Go and tell David, ‘This is what the LORD says: I offer you three choices. Choose one of them and I will do it to you.’ ” So Gad went to David and said to him, “Should three years of hunger come to you and your land? Or should your enemies chase you for three months? Or should there be three days of disease in your land? Think about it. Then decide which of these things I should tell the LORD who sent me.” David said to Gad, “I am in great trouble. Let the LORD punish us, because the LORD is very merciful. Don’t let my punishment come from human beings!” So the LORD sent a terrible disease on Israel. It began in the morning and continued until the chosen time to stop. From Dan to Beersheba seventy thousand people died.
