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.
