Contextual Overview
7 God was displeased with this and therefore punished Isra'el. 8 David said to God, "I have greatly sinned by doing this. But now, please! Put aside your servant's sin, for I have done a very foolish thing." 9 Adonai spoke to Gad, David's seer: 10 "Go and tell David that Adonai says, ‘I am offering you a choice of three punishments: choose one of them, and I will execute it against you.'" 11 Gad came to David and said to him, "Take your choice: 12 three years of famine; or three months of being swept away by your enemies, while your enemies' sword overwhelms you; or three days of Adonai 's sword — plague in the land, with the angel of Adonai destroying everywhere in Isra'el's territory. Now think about what answer I should give to the one who sent me." 13 David said to Gad, "This is very hard for me. Let me fall into the hand of Adonai , because his mercies are very great, rather than have me fall into the hand of man." 14 So Adonai sent a plague on Isra'el; 70,000 of the people of Isra'el died. 15 God also sent an angel to destroy Yerushalayim, but when he was about to carry out the destruction, Adonai saw it and changed his mind about causing such distress; so he said to the destroying angel, "Enough! Now withdraw your hand." The angel of Adonai was standing at the threshing-floor of Ornan the Y'vusi. 16 David raised his eyes and saw the angel of Adonai standing between the earth and the sky, and in his hand was a drawn sword stretched out over Yerushalayim. Then David and the leaders, wearing sackcloth, fell on their faces.
