1 Chronicles 21:1-5
English Standard Version

Chapter 21

1Then Satan stood against Israel and incited David to number Israel. 2So David said to Joab and the commanders of the army, "Go, number Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, and bring me a report, that I may know their number." 3But Joab said, "May the Lord add to his people a hundred times as many as they are! Are they not, my lord the king, all of them my lord 's servants? Why then should my lord require this? Why should it be a cause of guilt for Israel?" 4But the king 's word prevailed against Joab. So Joab departed and went throughout all Israel and came back to Jerusalem. 5And Joab gave the sum of the numbering of the people to David. In all Israel there were 1,100,000 men who drew the sword, and in Judah 470,000 who drew the sword.
