1 Chronicles 21:16 in Context — 1 Chronicles 21
14 Assim o SENHOR deu pestilência em Israel, e caíram de Israel setenta mil homens.
15 E enviou o SENHOR o anjo a Jerusalém para destruí-la: mas estando ele destruindo, olhou o SENHOR, e arrependeu-se daquele mal,
16 E levantando Davi seus olhos, viu ao anjo do SENHOR, que estava entre o céu e a terra, tendo uma espada nua em sua mão, estendida contra Jerusalém. Então Davi e os anciãos se prostraram sobre seus rostos, cobertos de sacos.
17 E disse Davi a Deus: Não sou eu o que fez contar o povo? Eu mesmo sou o que pequei, e certamente fiz mal; mas estas ovelhas, que fizeram? Ó SENHOR, Deus meu, seja agora tua mão contra mim, e contra a casa de meu pai, e não haja praga em teu povo.
18 E o anjo do SENHOR ordenou a Gade que dissesse a Davi, que subisse e construísse um altar a o SENHOR na era de Ornã jebuseu.
