2 Samuel 24:11-13

Context

24:11 When David got up the next morning, the Lord had already spoken 1  to Gad the prophet, David’s seer: 24:12 “Go, tell David, ‘This is what the Lord says: I am offering you three forms of judgment. Pick one of them and I will carry it out against you.’”

24:13 Gad went to David and told him, “Shall seven 2  years of famine come upon your land? Or shall you flee for three months from your enemy with him in hot pursuit? Or shall there be three days of plague in your land? Now decide 3  what I should tell the one who sent me.”

1 tn Heb “and the word of the Lord came.”

2 tc The LXX has here “three” rather than “seven,” and is followed by NAB, NIV, NCV, NRSV, TEV, NLT. See 1 Chr 21:12.

3 tn Heb “now know and see.”
