1 Chronicles 21:13-15
New King James Version
13 And David said to Gad, “I am in great distress. Please let me fall into the hand of the Lord, for His (A)mercies are very great; but do not let me fall into the hand of man.”
14 So the Lord sent a (B)plague upon Israel, and seventy thousand men of Israel fell. 15 And God sent [a]an (C)angel to Jerusalem to destroy it. As [b]he was destroying, the Lord looked and (D)relented of the disaster, and said to the angel who was destroying, “It is enough; now restrain [c]your hand.” And the angel of the Lord stood by the (E)threshing floor of [d]Ornan the Jebusite.
