1Καὶ ἔστη διάβολος ἐν τῷ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἐπέσεισεν τὸν Δαυὶδ τοῦ ἀριθμῆσαι τὸν ἰσραήλ.
1And Satan stood up against Israel, and moved David to number Israel.
2Καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς δαυὶδ πρὸς Ἰωὰβ καὶ τοὺς ἄρχοντας τῆς δυνάμεως, πορεύθητε, ἀριθμήσατε τὸν Ἰσραὴλ ἀρὸ Βηρσαβεὲ καὶ ἕως Δᾶν, καὶ ἐνέγκατε πρὸς μὲ, καὶ γνώσομαι τὸν ἀριθμὸν αὐτῶν.
2And David said to Joab and to the princes of the people: 'Go, number Israel from Beersheba even to Dan; and bring me word, that I may know the sum of them.'
3Καὶ εἶπεν Ἰωάβ, Προσθείη Κύριος ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ, ὡς αὐτοὶ ἑκατονταπλασίως, καὶ οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ τοῦ κυρίου μυυ τοῦ βασιλέως βλέποντες· πάντες τῷ κυρίῳ μου παῖδεσ· ἱνατί ζητεῖ κύριός μου τοῦτο; ἳνα μὴ γένηται εἰς ἁμαρτίαν τῷ Ἰσραήλ.
3And Joab said: 'The LORD make His people a hundred times so many more as they are; but, my lord the king, are they not all my lord's servants? why doth my lord require this thing? why will he be a cause of guilt unto Israel?'
4Τὸ δὲ ρῆμα τοῦ βασιλέως ἴσχυσεν ἐπὶ Ιωὰβ, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Ιωὰβ, καὶ διῆθεν ἐν παντὶ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἦλθεν εἰς Ἰερουσλήμ.
4Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab. Wherefore Joab departed and went throughout all Israel, and 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·
5And Joab gave up the sum of the numbering of the people unto David. And all they of Israel were a thousand thousand and a hundred thousand men that drew sword; and Judah was four hundred three-score and ten thousand men that drew sword.
6Καὶ τὸν Λευὶ καὶ τὸν Βενιαμεὶν οὐκ ἠρίθμησεν ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν, ὅτι κατίσχυσν λόγος τοῦ βασιλέως τὸν Ἰωάβ.
6But Levi and Benjamin he did not number among them; for the king's word was abominable to Joab.
7καὶ πονηρὸν ἐναντίον τοῦ Θεοῦ περὶ τοῦ πράγματος τούτου, καὶ ἐπάταξεν τὸν Ἰσραήλ.
7And God was displeased with this thing; therefore He smote 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.
8And David said unto God: 'I have sinned greatly, in that I have done this thing; but now, put away, I beseech Thee, the iniquity of Thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.'
9Καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Γὰδ τὸν ὁρῶντα,
9And the LORD spoke unto Gad, David's seer, saying:
10Πορεύου καὶ λάλησον πρὸς Δαυὶδ, λέγων, Οὕτως λέγει Κύριος, τρία αἴρω ἐγὼ ἐπι σέ, ἔκλεξαι σεαυτῷ ἓν ἐξ αὐτῶν, καὶ ποιήσω σοι.
10'Go and speak unto David, saying: Thus saith the LORD: I offer thee three things; choose thee one of them, that I may do it unto thee.'
11καὶ ἦλθεν Γὰδ πρὸς Δαυὶδ, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, Οὕτως λέγει Κύριος, Ἔκλεξαι σεαυτῷ
11So Gad came to David, and said unto him: 'Thus saith the LORD: Take which thou wilt:
12ἢ τρία ἔτη λιμοῦ, ἢ τρεῖς μῆνας φεύγειν σε ἐκ προσώπου ἐχθρῶν σου, καὶ μάχαιρα ἐξ ἐχθρῶν σου τοῦ ἐξολεθρεῦσαι, ἢ τρεῖς ἡμέρας ῥομφαίαν Κυρίου καὶ θάνατον ἐν τῇ γῇ, καὶ ἄγγελος Κυρίου ἐξολεθρεύων ἐν πάσῃ κληρονομίᾳ Ἰσραήλ· καὶ νῦν ἴδε τί ἀποκριθῶ τῷ ἀποστείλαντι λόγον.
12either three years of famine; or three months to be swept away before thy foes, while the sword of thine enemies overtaketh thee; or else three days the sword of the LORD, even pestilence in the land, and the angel of the LORD destroying throughout all the borders of Israel. Now therefore consider what answer I shall return to Him that sent me.'
13Καὶ εἶπεν Δαυεὶδ πρὸς Γάδ Στενά μοι καὶ τὰ τρία σφόδρα· ἐμπεσοῦμαι δὴ εἰς χεῖρας Κυρίου, ὅτι πολλοὶ οἱ οἰκτειρμοὶ αὐτοῦ σφόδρα, καὶ εἰς χεῖρας ἀνθρώπων οὐ μὴ ἐμπέσω.
13And David said unto Gad: 'I am in a great strait; let me fall now into the hand of the LORD, for very great are His mercies; and let me not fall into the hand of man.'
14Καὶ ἔδωκεν Κύριος θάνατον ἐν Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἔπεσον ἐξ Ἰσραὴλ ἑβδομήκοντα χιλιάδες ἀνδρῶν.
14So the LORD sent a pestilence upon Israel; and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.
15καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Θεὸς ἄγγελο εἰς Ἰερουσαλὴμ τοῦ ἐξολοθρεῦσαι αὐτήν. καὶ ὡς ἐξολόθρευεν, εἶδε Κύριος, καὶ μετεμελήθη ἐπὶ τῇ κακίᾳ. καὶ εἶπε τῷ ἀγγέλῳ τῷ ἐξολοθρεύονντι, Ἱκανούσθω σοι, ἄνες τὴν χεῖρά σου· καὶ ὁ ἄγγελος Κυρίου ἑστὼς ἐν τῷ ἅλῳ Ὀρνὰ τοῦ Ἰεβουσαίου.
15And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it; and as he was about to destroy, the LORD beheld, and He repented Him of the evil, and said to the destroying angel: 'It is enough; now stay thy hand.' And the angel of the LORD was standing by the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
16Καὶ ἐπῆρε Δαυὶδ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἶδε τὸν ἄγγελον Κυρίου ἑστῶτα ἀναμέσον τῆς γῆς καὶ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ ἡ ῥομφαία αὐτοῦ ἐσπασμένη ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ ἐκτεταμένη ἐπὶ Ἰερουσαλὴμ, καὶ ἔπεσε Δαυὶδ καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι περιβεβλημένοι ἐν σάκκοις ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτῶν.
16And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the LORD standing between the earth and the heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces.
17Καὶ εἶπεν Δαὶδ πρὸς τὸν Θθεόν, Οὐκ ἐγὼ εἶπα τοῦ ἀριθμῆσαι τῷ λαῷ; καὶ ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ ἁμαρτών, κακοποιῶν ἐκακοποίησα, καὶ ταῦτα τὰ πρόβατα τί ἐποίησαν; Κύριε ὁ Θθεός, γενηθήτω ἡ χείρ σου ἐν ἐμοὶ καὶ ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ πατρός μου, καὶ μὴ ἐν τῷ λαῷ σου εἰς ἀπώλειαν, Κύριε.
17And David said unto God: 'Is it not I that commanded the people to be numbered? even I it is that have sinned and done very wickedly; but these sheep, what have they done? let Thy hand, I pray Thee, O LORD my God, be against me, and against my father's house; but not against Thy people, that they should be plagued.'
18Καὶ ἄγγελος Κυρίου εἶπε τῷ Γὰδ τοῦ εἰπεῖν πρὸς Δαυὶδ ἵνα ἀναβῇ τοῦ στῆσαι θυσιαστήριον κυρίῳ ἐν ἅλῳ Ὀρνὰ τοῦ Ἰεβουσαίου.
18Then the angel of the LORD commanded Gad to say to David, that David should go up, and rear an altar unto the LORD in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
19Καὶ ἀνέβη Δαυὶδ κατὰ τὸν λόγον Γὰδ, ὃν ἐλάλησεν ἐν ὀνόματι Κυρίου.
19And David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spoke in the name of the LORD.
20Καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν Ὀρνά, καὶ εἶδε τὸν βασιλέα καὶ τέσσαρας υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ μετʼ αὐτοῦ μεθʼ ἁχαβίν· καὶ Ὀρνὰ ἦν ἀλοῶν πυρούς.
20And Ornan turned back, and saw the angel; and his four sons that were with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.
21Καὶ ἦλθεν Δαυὶδ πρὸς Ὀρνᾶν, καὶ Ὀρνὰ ἐξῆλθεν ἐκ τῆς ἅλω καὶ προσεκύνησεν τῷ Δαυὶδ τῷ προσώπῳ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν.
21And as David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshing-floor, and bowed down to David with his face to the ground.
22Καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ πρὸς Ὀρνὰ, δός μοι τὸν τόπον σου τῆς ἅλω, καὶ οἰκοδομήσω ἐπʼ αὐτῷ θυσιαστήριον τῷ κυρίῳ· ἐν ἀργυρίῳ ἀξίῳ δός μοι αὐτόν, καὶ παύσεται ἡ πληγὴ ἐκ τοῦ λαοῦ.
22Then David said to Ornan: 'Give me the place of this threshing-floor, that I may build thereon an altar unto the LORD; for the full price shalt thou give it me; that the plague may be stayed from the people.'
23Καὶ εἶπεν Ὀρνὰ πρὸς Δαυίδ, Λάβε σεαυτῷ, καὶ ποιησάτω ὁ κύριός μου ὁ βασιλεὺς τὸ ἀγαθὸν ἐναντίον εαὐτοῦ· ἴδε δέδωκα τοὺς μόσχους εἰς ὁλοκαύτωσιν, καὶ τὸ ἄροτρον εἰς ξύλα, καὶ τὸν σῖτον εἰς θυαίαν, τὰ πάντα δέδωκα.
23And Ornan said unto David: 'Take it to thee, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes; lo, I give thee 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 Ὀρνὰ, Οὐχὶ, ὅτι ἀγοράζων ἀγοράσω ἐν ἀργυρίῳ ἀξίῳ, ὅτι οὐ μὴ λάβω ἅ ἐστί σοι Κυρίῳ, τοῦ ἀνενέγκαι ὁλοκαύτωσιν δωρεὰν Κυρίῳ.
24And king David said to Ornan: 'Nay, but I will verily buy it for the full price; for I will not take that which is thine for the LORD, nor offer a burnt-offering without cost.'
25καὶ ἔδωκεν Δαυὶδ τῷ Ὀρνὰ ἐν τῷ τόπῳ αὐτοῦ σίκλους χρυσίου ὁλκῆς ἑξακοσίους.
25So David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of gold by weight.
26Καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐκεῖ Δανδ 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 κατανάλωσεν τὴν ὁλοκαύτωσιν.
26And David built there an altar unto the LORD, and offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings, and called upon the LORD; and He answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of burnt-offering.
27Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον· καὶ κατέθηκε τὴν ῥομφαίαν εἰς τὸν κολεὸν αὐτῆς.
27And the LORD commanded the angel; and he put up his sword back into the sheath thereof.
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 tabernacle of the LORD, 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 ῥομφαίας ἀγγέλου Κυρίου.
30But David could not go before it to inquire of God; for he was terrified because of the sword of the angel of the LORD.
