DIVRE HAYAMIM ALEF - FIRST CHRONICLES
bring the number of them to me, that I may know it.
3 And Yoav answered, vuvh make His people a hundred
times so many more as they be: but, my master the
melech, are they not all my master’s avadim? Why then
does my master require this thing? Why will he be a
cause of trespass to Yisrael?
4 Nevertheless the melech’s words prevailed against
Yoav. Therefore Yoav left, and went throughout kol
Yisrael, and came to Yahrushalayim.
5 And Yoav gave the sum of the number of the people to
Dawid. And all those of Yisrael were one million one
hundred thousand men that drew sword: and Yahudah
was four hundred seventy thousand men that drew sword.
6 But Lewi and Benyamin he did not count: for the
melech’s word was abominable to Yoav.
7 And Elohim was displeased with this thing; therefore
He smote Yisrael.
8 And Dawid said to Elohim, I have sinned greatly,
because I have done this thing: but now, I beg You, do
away the iniquity of Your eved; for I have done very
foolishly.
9 And vuvh spoke to Gad, Dawid’s seer, saying,
10 Go and tell Dawid, saying, This says vuvh, I offer you
three things: choose one of them, that I may do it to
you. 4238
11 So Gad came to Dawid, and said to him, This says
vuvh, Choose for yourself ,
12 Either three years of famine; or three months to be
destroyed before your foes, while the sword of your
enemies overtakes you; or else three days of the sword of
vuvh, even pestilence, in the land, with the Heavenly
Malach of vuvh destroying throughout all the borders of
Yisrael. Now therefore consider yourself what word I
shall bring again to Him that sent me.
13 And Dawid said to Gad, I am in a great trouble: let me
fall now into the hand of vuvh; for very great are His
rachamim: but let me not fall into the hand of man.
14 So vuvh sent pestilence upon Yisrael: and there fell of
Yisrael seventy thousand men.
15 And Elohim sent a Heavenly Malach to
Yahrushalayim to destroy it: and as He was destroying,
vuvh beheld, and He relented of the evil, and said to the
Heavenly Malach that was destroying, It is enough, hold
back now Your hand. And the Heavenly Malach of vuvh
stood by the threshing floor of Ornan the Yevusi.
16 And Dawid lifted up his eyes, and saw the Heavenly
Malach of vuvh stand between the earth and the
shamayim, having a drawn sword in His hand stretched
out over Yahrushalayim. Then Dawid and the zechanim
of Yisrael, who were clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their
faces.
17 And Dawid said to Elohim, Is it not I that commanded
the people to be numbered? I have sinned and done evil
indeed; but as for these sheep, what have they done? Let
Your hand, I make tefillah to You, O vuvh my Elohim, be
on me, and on my abba’s bayit; but not on Your people,
that they should be plagued.
18 Then the Heavenly Malach of vuvh commanded Gad
to say to Dawid, that Dawid should go up, and set up an
altar to vuvh in the threshing floor of Ornan the Yevusi.
19 And Dawid went up at the saying of Gad, which he
spoke in the Name of vuvh. 4239
20 And Ornan turned back, and saw the Heavenly
- 556 -
Malach; and his four sons with him hid themselves. Now
Ornan was threshing wheat.
21 And as Dawid came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw
Dawid, and went out of the threshing floor, and bowed
himself to Dawid with his face to the ground.
22 Then Dawid said to Ornan, Grant me the place of this
threshing floor, that I may build an altar here to vuvh: you
shall grant it me for the full price: that the plague may be
removed from the people.
23 And Ornan said to Dawid, Take it for you, and let my
master the melech do that which is tov in his eyes: look, I
give you the oxen also for burnt offerings, and the
threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the
grain offering; I give it all.
24 And melech Dawid said to Ornan, No; but I will truly
buy it for the full price: for I will not take that which is
yours for vuvh, nor offer burnt offerings without cost.
25 So Dawid gave to Ornan for the place six hundred
shekels of gold by weight.
26 And Dawid built there an altar to vuvh, and offered burnt
offerings and shalom offerings, and called upon vuvh; and
He answered him from the shamayim by fire upon the
altar of burnt offering. 4240
27 And vuvh commanded the Heavenly Malach; and He
put up his sword again into its sheath.
28 At that time when Dawid saw that vuvh had answered
him in the threshing floor of Ornan the Yevusi, then he
sacrificed there.
29 For the Tabernacle of vuvh, which Moshe made in the
wilderness, and the altar of the burnt offering, were at that
time in the high place at Giveon.
30 But Dawid could not go before it to seek Elohim: for
he was afraid because of the sword of the Heavenly
Malach of vuvh.
22
Then Dawid said, This is the Bayit of vuvh Elohim,
and this is the altar of the burnt offering for Yisrael.
2 And Dawid commanded to gather together the gerim
that were in the land of Yisrael; and he set stonemasons to
cut stones to build the Bayit of Elohim.
3 And Dawid prepared iron in abundance for the nails for
the doors of the gates, and for the clamps; and bronze in
abundance without weight;
4 Also cedar eytzim in abundance: for the Tzidonians and
those of Tzor brought much cedar wood to Dawid.
5 And Dawid said, Shlomo my son is young and tender,
and the bayit that is to be built for vuvh must be
exceedingly great, for a great Name throughout all the
countries; I will therefore now make preparation for it. So
Dawid prepared abundantly before his death.
6 Then he called for Shlomo his son, and commanded
him to build a bayit for vuvh Elohim of Yisrael.
7 And Dawid said to Shlomo, My son, as for me, it was in
my mind to build a bayit to the Name of vuvh my Elohim:
8 But the word of vuvh came to me, saying, You have
shed dahm abundantly, and have made great wars: you
shall not build a bayit to My Name, because you have
shed much dahm upon the earth in My sight.
9 Behold, a son shall be born to you, who shall be a man
of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies all
around: for his name shall be Shlomo, and I will give
shalom and rest to Yisrael in his days.
10 He shall build a Bayit for My Name; and he shall be
