1 Chronicles 21:5 in Context — 1 Chronicles 21
3 Joab répondit: Que l’Éternel rende son peuple cent fois plus nombreux! O roi mon seigneur, ne sont-ils pas tous serviteurs de mon seigneur? Mais pourquoi mon seigneur demande-t-il cela? Pourquoi faire ainsi pécher Israël?
4 Le roi persista dans l’ordre qu’il donnait à Joab. Et Joab partit, et parcourut tout Israël; puis il revint à Jérusalem.
5 Joab remit à David le rôle du dénombrement du peuple: il y avait dans tout Israël onze cent mille hommes tirant l’épée, et en Juda quatre cent soixante-dix mille hommes tirant l’épée.
6 Il ne fit point parmi eux le dénombrement de Lévi et de Benjamin, car l’ordre du roi lui paraissait une abomination.
7 Cet ordre déplut à Dieu, qui frappa Israël.
