Contextual Overview

⁷ And God was displeased with this thing; therefore He struck Israel. ⁸ So David said to God, "I have sinned greatly, because I have done this thing; but now, I pray, take away the iniquity of Your servant, for I have done very foolishly." ⁹ Then the LORD spoke to Gad, David's seer, saying, ¹⁰ "Go and tell David, saying, "Thus says the LORD: "I offer you three things; choose one of them for yourself, that I may do it to you.""' ¹¹ So Gad came to David and said to him, "Thus says the LORD: "Choose for yourself, ¹² either three 2 Samuel 24:13)">[fn] years of famine, or three months to be defeated by your foes with the sword of your enemies overtaking you, or else for three days the sword of the Lord--the plague in the land, with the angel [fn] of the Lord destroying throughout all the territory of Israel.' Now consider what answer I should take back to Him who sent me." ¹³ And David said to Gad, "I am in great distress. Please let me fall into the hand of the LORD, for His mercies are very great; but do not let me fall into the hand of man." ¹⁴ So the LORD sent a plague upon Israel, and seventy thousand men of Israel fell. ¹⁵ And God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it. As he [fn] was destroying, the Lord looked and relented of the disaster, and said to the angel who was destroying, "It is enough; now restrain your [fn] hand." And the angel of the Lord stood by the threshing floor of Ornan 2 Samuel 24:16">[fn] the Jebusite. ¹⁶ Then David lifted his eyes and saw the angel of the LORD standing between earth and heaven, having in his hand a drawn sword stretched out over Jerusalem. So David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell on their faces.
