2 Samuel 24:11-13
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
11 When David rose in the morning, the word of the Lord came to the prophet Gad, David’s seer, saying, 12 ‘Go and say to David: Thus says the Lord: Three things I offer[a] you; choose one of them, and I will do it to you.’ 13 So Gad came to David and told him; he asked him, ‘Shall three[b] years of famine come to you on your land? Or will you flee for three months before your foes while they pursue you? Or shall there be three days’ pestilence in your land? Now consider, and decide what answer I shall return to the one who sent me.’

New International Version
11 Before David got up the next morning, the word of the Lord had come to Gad(A) the prophet, David’s seer:(B) 12 “Go and tell David, ‘This is what the Lord says: I am giving you three options. Choose one of them for me to carry out against you.’”
13 So Gad went to David and said to him, “Shall there come on you three[a] years of famine(C) in your land? Or three months of fleeing from your enemies while they pursue you? Or three days of plague(D) in your land? Now then, think it over and decide how I should answer the one who sent me.”
