24:1 耶和华又向以色列人发怒，就激动大卫，使他吩咐人去数点以色列人和犹大人。
24:2 And the king said to Joab and the captains of the army, who were with him, Go now through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan as far as Beer-sheba, and have all the people numbered, so that I may be certain of the number of the people.
24:2 大卫就吩咐跟随他的元帅约押说，你去走遍以色列众支派，从但直到别是巴，数点百姓，我好知道他们的数目。
24:3 And Joab said to the king, Whatever the number of the people, may the Lord make it a hundred times as much, and may the eyes of my lord the king see it: but why does my lord the king take pleasure in doing this thing?
24:3 约押对王说，无论百姓多少，愿耶和华你的神再加增百倍，使我主我王亲眼得见。我主我王何必喜悦行这事呢？
24:4 But the king's order was stronger than Joab and the captains of the army. And Joab and the captains of the army went out from the king, to take the number of the children of Israel.

24:9 And Joab gave the king the number of all the people: there were in Israel eight hundred thousand fighting men able to take up arms; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand.
24:9 约押将百姓的总数奏告于王，以色列拿刀的勇士有八十万。犹大有五十万。
24:10 And after the people had been numbered, David's heart was troubled. And David said to the Lord, Great has been my sin in doing this; but now, O Lord, be pleased to take away the sin of your servant, for I have done very foolishly
24:10 大卫数点百姓以后，就心中自责，祷告耶和华说，我行这事大有罪了。耶和华阿，求你除掉仆人的罪孽，因我所行的甚是愚昧。
24:11 And David got up in the morning; now the word of the Lord had come to the prophet Gad, David's seer, saying,
24:11 大卫早晨起来，耶和华的话临到先知迦得，就是大卫的先见，说，
24:12 Go and say to David, The Lord says, Three things are offered to you: say which of them you will have, and I will do it to you.
24:12 你去告诉大卫，说耶和华如此说，我有三样灾，随你选择一样，我好降与你。
24:13 So Gad came to David, and gave him word of this and said to him, Are there to be three years when there is not enough food in your land? or will you go in flight from your haters for three months, while they go after you? or will you have three days of violent disease in your land? take thought and say what answer I am to give to him who sent me.
24:13 于是迦得来见大卫，对他说，你愿意国中有七年的饥荒呢？是在你敌人面前逃跑，被追赶三个月呢？是在你国中有三日的瘟疫呢？现在你要揣摩思想，我好回覆那差我来的。
24:14 And David said to Gad, This is a hard decision for me to make: let us come into the hands of the Lord, for great are his mercies: let me not come into the hands of men.
24:14 大卫对迦得说，我甚为难。我愿落在耶和华的手里，因为他有丰盛的怜悯。我不愿落在人的手里。
24:15 So David made selection of the disease; and the time was the days of the grain-cutting, when the disease came among the people, causing the death of seventy thousand men from Dan as far as Beer-sheba.
24:15 于是，耶和华降瘟疫与以色列人，自早晨到所定的时候。从但直到别是巴，民间死了七万人。
24:16 And when the hand of the angel was stretched out in the direction of Jerusalem, for its destruction, the Lord had regret for the evil, and said to the angel who was sending destruction on the people, It is enough; do no more. And the angel of the Lord was by the grain-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
24:16 天使向耶路撒冷伸手要灭城的时候，耶和华后悔，就不降这灾了，吩咐灭民的天使说，够了，住手吧。那时耶和华的使者在耶布斯人亚劳拿的禾场那里。
24:17 And when David saw the angel who was causing the destruction of the people, he said to the Lord, Truly, the sin is mine; I have done wrong: but these are only sheep; what have they done? let your hand be against me and against my family.
24:17 大卫看见灭民的天使，就祷告耶和华说，我犯了罪，行了恶。但这群羊作了什么呢？愿你的手攻击我和我的父家。
24:18 And that day Gad came to David and said to him, Go up, and put up an altar to the Lord on the grain-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
24:18 当日，迦得来见大卫，对他说，你上去，在耶布斯人亚劳拿的禾场上为耶和华筑一座坛。
24:19 So David went up, as Gad had said and as the Lord had given orders.
24:19 大卫就照着迦得奉耶和华名所说的话上去了。
24:20 And Araunah, looking out, saw the king and his servants coming to him: and Araunah went out, and went down on his face to the earth before the king.
24:20 亚劳拿观看，见王和他臣仆前来，就迎接出去，脸伏于地，向王下拜，
24:21 And Araunah said, Why has my lord the king come to his servant? And David said, To give you a price for your grain-floor, so that I may put up an altar to the Lord, and the disease may be stopped among the people.
24:21 说，我主我王为何来到仆人这里呢？大卫说，我要买你这禾场，为耶和华筑一座坛，使民间的瘟疫止住。
24:22 And Araunah said to David, Let my lord the king take whatever seems right to him, and make an offering of it: see, here are the oxen for the burned offering, and the grain-cleaning instruments and the ox-yokes for wood:
24:22 亚劳拿对大卫说，我主我王，你喜悦用什么，就拿去献祭。看哪，这里有牛可以作燔祭，有打粮的器具和套牛的轭可以当柴烧。
24:23 All this does the servant of my lord the king give to the king. And Araunah said, May the Lord your God be pleased with your offering!
24:23 王阿，这一切，我亚劳拿都奉给你。又对王说，愿耶和华你的神悦纳你。
24:24 And the king said to Araunah, No, but I will give you a price for it; I will not give to the Lord my God burned offerings for which I have given nothing. So David got the grain-floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
24:24 王对亚劳拿说，不然。我必要按着价值向你买。我不肯用白得之物作燔祭献给耶和华我的神。大卫就用五十舍客勒银子买了那禾场与牛。
24:25 And there David put up an altar to the Lord, making burned offerings and peace-offerings. So the Lord gave ear to his prayer for the land, and the disease came to an end in Israel.
24:25 大卫在那里为耶和华筑了一座坛，献燔祭和平安祭。如此，耶和华垂听国民所求的，瘟疫在以色列人中就止住了。
