1ΚΑΙ ἔστη διάβολος ἐν τῷ Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἐπέσεισε τὸν Δαυὶδ τοῦ ἀριθμῆσαι τὸν Ἰσραήλ.
1Satan stood up against Israel, and moved David to take a census of Israel.
2καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Δαυὶδ πρὸς Ἰωὰβ καὶ πρὸς τοὺς ἄρχοντας τῆς δυνάμεως· πορεύθητε, ἀριθμήσατε τὸν Ἰσραὴλ ἀπὸ Βηρσαβεὲ καὶ ἕως Δὰν καὶ ἐνέγκατε πρός με, καὶ γνώσομαι τὸν ἀριθμὸν αὐτῶν.
2David said to Joab and to the princes of the people, “Go, count Israel from Beersheba even to Dan; and bring me word, that I may know how many there are.”
3καὶ εἶπεν Ἰωάβ· προσθείη Κύριος ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ, ὡς αὐτοὶ ἑκατονταπλασίως, καὶ οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ τοῦ κυρίου μου τοῦ βασιλέως βλέποντες· πάντες τῷ κυρίῳ μου παῖδες· ἱνατί ζητεῖ κύριός μου τοῦτο; ἵνα μὴ γένηται εἰς ἁμαρτίαν τῷ Ἰσραήλ.
3Joab said, “May the LORD make his people a hundred times as many as they are. But, my lord the king, aren’t they all my lord’s servants? Why does my lord require this thing? Why will he be a cause of guilt to Israel?”
4τὸ δὲ ρῆμα τοῦ βασιλέως ἴσχυσεν ἐπὶ Ἰωάβ, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Ἰωὰβ καὶ διῆλθεν ἐν παντὶ Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἦλθεν εἰς Ἱερουσαλήμ.
4Nevertheless the king’s word prevailed against Joab. Therefore Joab departed and went throughout all Israel, then came to Jerusalem.
5καὶ ἔδωκεν Ἰωὰβ τὸν ἀριθμὸν τῆς ἐπισκέψεως τοῦ λαοῦ τῷ Δαυίδ, καὶ ἦν πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ χίλιαι χιλιάδες καὶ ἑκατὸν χιλιάδες ἀνδρῶν ἐσπασμένων μάχαιραν καὶ υἱοὶ Ἰούδα τετρακόσιαι καὶ ἑβδομήκοντα χιλιάδες ἀνδρῶν ἐσπασμένων μάχαιραν.
5Joab gave the sum of the census of the people to David. All those of Israel were one million one hundred thousand men who drew a sword; and in Judah were four hundred seventy thousand men who drew a sword.
6καὶ τὸν Λευὶ καὶ τὸν Βενιαμὶν οὐκ ἠρίθμησεν ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν, ὅτι κατίσχυσε λόγος τοῦ βασιλέως τὸν Ἰωάβ.
6But he didn’t count Levi and Benjamin among them, for the king’s word was abominable to Joab.
7καὶ πονηρὸν ἐναντίον τοῦ Θεοῦ περὶ τοῦ πράγματος τούτου, καὶ ἐπάταξε τὸν Ἰσραήλ.
7God was displeased with this thing; therefore he struck Israel.
8καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ πρὸς τὸν Θεόν· ἡμάρτηκα σφόδρα, ὅτι ἐποίησα τὸ πρᾶγμα τοῦτο· καὶ νῦν περίελε δὴ τὴν κακίαν παιδός σου, ὅτι ἐματαιώθην σφόδρα.
8David said to God, “I have sinned greatly, in that I have done this thing. But now put away, I beg you, the iniquity of your servant, for I have done very foolishly.”
9καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Γὰδ τὸν ὁρῶντα λέγων·
9The LORD spoke to Gad, David’s seer, saying,
10πορεύου καὶ λάλησον πρὸς Δαυὶδ λέγων· οὕτω λέγει Κύριος· τρία αἱρῶ ἐγὼ ἐπὶ σέ, ἔκλεξαι σεαυτῷ ἓν ἐξ αὐτῶν καὶ ποιήσω σοι.
10“Go and speak to David, saying, ‘The LORD says, “I offer you three things. Choose one of them, that I may do it to you.”’”
11καὶ ἦλθε Γὰδ πρὸς Δαυὶδ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· οὕτως λέγει Κύριος· ἔκλεξαι σεαυτῷ
11So Gad came to David and said to him, “The LORD says, ‘Take your choice:
12ἢ τρία ἔτη λιμοῦ, ἢ τρεῖς μῆνας φεύγειν σε ἐκ προσώπου ἐχθρῶν σου καὶ μάχαιραν ἐχθρῶν σου τοῦ ἐξολοθρεῦσαι, ἢ τρεῖς ἡμέρας ρομφαίαν Κυρίου καὶ θάνατον ἐν τῇ γῇ καὶ ἄγγελος Κυρίου ἐξολοθρεύων ἐν πάσῃ κληρονομίᾳ Ἰσραήλ· καὶ νῦν ἰδὲ τί ἀποκριθῶ τῷ ἀποστείλαντί με λόγον.
12either three years of famine; or three months to be consumed before your foes, while the sword of your enemies overtakes you; or else three days of the sword of the LORD, even pestilence in the land, and the LORD’s angel destroying throughout all the borders of Israel. Now therefore consider what answer I shall return to him who sent me.’”
13καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ πρὸς Γάδ· στενά μοι καὶ τὰ τρία σφόδρα· ἐμπεσοῦμαι δὴ εἰς χεῖρας Κυρίου, ὅτι πολλοὶ οἱ οἰκτιρμοὶ αὐτοῦ σφόδρα, καὶ εἰς χεῖρας ἀνθρώπων οὐ μὴ ἐμπέσω.
13David said to Gad, “I am in distress. Let me fall, I pray, into the LORD’s hand, for his mercies are very great. Don’t let me fall into man’s hand.”
14καὶ ἔδωκε Κύριος θάνατον ἐν Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἔπεσον ἐξ Ἰσραὴλ ἑβδομήκοντα χιλιάδες ἀνδρῶν.
14So the LORD sent a pestilence on Israel, and seventy thousand men of Israel fell.
15καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ὁ Θεὸς ἄγγελον εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ τοῦ ἐξολοθρεῦσαι αὐτήν. καὶ ὡς ἐξωλόθρευσεν, εἶδε Κύριος καὶ μετεμελήθη ἐπὶ τῇ κακίᾳ καὶ εἶπε τῷ ἀγγέλῳ τῷ ἐξολοθρεύοντι· ἱκανούσθω σοι, ἄνες τὴν χεῖρά σου· καὶ ὁ ἄγγελος Κυρίου ἑστὼς ἐν τῷ ἅλῳ Ὀρνὰ τοῦ Ἰεβουσαίου.
15God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it. As he was about to destroy, the LORD saw, and he relented of the disaster, and said to the destroying angel, “It is enough. Now withdraw your hand.” the LORD’s angel was standing by the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
16καὶ ἐπῇρε Δαυὶδ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶδε τὸν ἄγγελον Κυρίου ἑστῶτα ἀνὰ μέσον τῆς γῆς καὶ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ ἡ ρομφαία αὐτοῦ ἐσπασμένη ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ ἐκτεταμένη ἐπὶ Ἱερουσαλήμ· καὶ ἔπεσε Δαυὶδ καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι περιβεβλημένοι ἐν σάκκοις ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτῶν.
16David lifted up his eyes, and saw the LORD’s angel standing between earth and the sky, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell on their faces.
17καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ πρὸς τὸν Θεόν· οὐκ ἐγὼ εἶπα τοῦ ἀριθμῆσαι ἐν τῷ λαῷ; καὶ ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ ἁμαρτών, κακοποιῶν ἐκακοποίησα, καὶ ταῦτα τὰ πρόβατα τί ἐποίησαν; Κύριε ὁ Θεός, γενηθήτω ἡ χείρ σου ἐν ἐμοὶ καὶ ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ πατρός μου καὶ μὴ ἐν τῷ λαῷ σου εἰς ἀπώλειαν, Κύριε.
17David said to God, “Isn’t it I who commanded the people to be counted? It is even I who have sinned and done very wickedly; but these sheep, what have they done? Please let your hand, O LORD my God, be against me and against my father’s house; but not against your people, that they should be plagued.”
18καὶ ἄγγελος Κυρίου εἶπε τῷ Γὰδ τοῦ εἰπεῖν πρὸς Δαυίδ, ἵνα ἀναβῇ τοῦ στῆσαι θυσιαστήριον Κυρίῳ ἐν ἅλῳ Ὀρνὰ τοῦ Ἰεβουσαίου.
18Then the LORD’s angel commanded Gad to tell David that David should go up and raise an altar to the LORD on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
19καὶ ἀνέβη Δαυὶδ κατὰ τὸν λόγον Γάδ, ὃν ἐλάλησεν ἐν ὀνόματι Κυρίου.
19David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spoke in the LORD’s name.
20καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν Ὀρνὰ καὶ εἶδε τὸν βασιλέα καὶ τέσσαρας υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ μεθαχαβίν· καὶ Ὀρνὰ ἦν ἁλοῶν πυρούς.
20Ornan turned back and saw the angel; and his four sons who were with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.
21καὶ ἦλθε Δαυὶδ πρὸς Ὀρνά, καὶ Ὀρνὰ ἐξῆλθεν ἐκ τῆς ἅλω καὶ προσεκύνησε τῷ Δαυὶδ τῷ προσώπῳ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν.
21As David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshing floor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.
22καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ πρὸς Ὀρνά· δός μοι τὸν τόπον σου τῆς ἅλω, καὶ οἰκοδομήσω ἐπ᾿ αὐτῷ θυσιαστήριον τῷ Κυρίῳ· ἐν ἀργυρίῳ ἀξίῳ δός μοι αὐτόν, καὶ παύσεται ἡ πληγὴ ἐκ τοῦ λαοῦ.
22Then David said to Ornan, “Sell me the place of this threshing floor, that I may build an altar to the LORD on it. You shall sell it to me for the full price, that the plague may be stopped from afflicting the people.”
23καὶ εἶπεν Ὀρνὰ πρὸς Δαυίδ· λαβὲ σεαυτῷ, καὶ ποιησάτω ὁ κύριός μου ὁ βασιλεὺς τὸ ἀγαθὸν ἐναντίον ἑαυτοῦ· ἰδὲ δέδωκα τοὺς μόσχους εἰς ὁλοκαύτωσιν καὶ τὸ ἄροτρον εἰς ξύλα καὶ τὸν σῖτον εἰς θυσίαν, τὰ πάντα δέδωκα.
23Ornan said to David, “Take it for yourself, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes. Behold, I give the oxen for burnt offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meal offering. I give it all.”
24καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Δαυὶδ τῷ Ὀρνά· οὐχί, ὅτι ἀγοράζων ἀγοράσω ἐν ἀργυρίῳ ἀξίῳ, ὅτι οὐ μὴ λάβω ἅ ἐστί σοι Κυρίῳ τοῦ ἀνανέγκαι ὁλοκαύτωσιν δωρεὰν Κυρίῳ.
24King David said to Ornan, “No, but I will most certainly buy it for the full price. For I will not take that which is yours for the LORD, nor offer a burnt offering that costs me nothing.”
25καὶ ἔδωκε Δαυὶδ τῷ Ὀρνὰ ἐν τῷ τόπῳ αὐτοῦ σίκλους χρυσίου ὁλκῆς ἑξακοσίους.
25So David gave to Ornan six hundred shekels of gold by weight for the place.
26καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐκεῖ Δαυὶδ θυσιαστήριον Κυρίῳ καὶ ἀνήνεγκεν ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ σωτηρίου· καὶ ἐβόησε πρὸς Κύριον, καὶ ἐπήκουσεν αὐτῷ ἐν πυρὶ ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τῆς ὁλοκαυτώσεως καὶ κατηνάλωσε τὴν ὁλοκαύτωσιν.
26David built an altar to the LORD there, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings, and called on the LORD; and he answered him from the sky by fire on the altar of burnt offering.
27καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον, καὶ κατέθηκε τὴν ρομφαίαν εἰς τὸν κολεὸν αὐτῆς.
27Then the LORD commanded the angel, and he put his sword back into its sheath.
28ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ἐν τῷ ἰδεῖν τὸν Δαυὶδ ὅτι ἐπήκουσεν αὐτῷ Κύριος ἐν ἅλῳ Ὀρνὰ τοῦ Ἰεβουσαίου, καὶ ἐθυσίασεν ἐκεῖ.
28At that time, when David saw that the LORD had answered him in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.
29καὶ σκηνὴ Κυρίου, ἣν ἐποίησε Μωυσῆς ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, καὶ θυσιαστήριον τῶν ὁλοκαυτωμάτων ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ἐν Βαμὰ ἐν Γαβαών·
29For the LORD’s tabernacle, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt offering, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.
30καὶ οὐκ ἐδύνατο Δαυὶδ τοῦ πορευθῆναι ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ τοῦ ζητῆσαι τὸν Θεόν, ὅτι οὐ κατέσπευσεν ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς ρομφαίας ἀγγέλου Κυρίου.
30But David couldn’t go before it to inquire of God, for he was afraid because of the sword of the LORD’s angel.
