Easy-to-Read Version

David Sins by Counting Israel

21 Satan^[a] was against the Israelites. He encouraged David to count the Israelites. ² So David said to Joab and the leaders of the people, “Go and count all the Israelites. Count everyone in the country—from the town of Beersheba all the way to the town of Dan. Then tell me, so I will know how many people there are.”
