2 Samuel 24:12-14

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹² Go and say unto David, Thus hath the LORD said, I offer thee three things: choose one of them, which I will do unto thee.

¹³ So Gad came to David and told him and said unto him, Shall seven years of famine come unto thee in thy land? Or wilt thou flee three months before thy enemies while they pursue thee? Or shall there be three days’ pestilence in thy land? Now advise, and see what answer I shall return to him that sent me.

¹⁴ Then David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait; let us fall now into the hand of the LORD, for his mercies are great, and let me not fall into the hand of man.
