1 Chronicles 27:23-24

New American Standard Bible

²³ But David did not ^[a]count those twenty years of age and under, ^(A)because the Lord had said He would multiply Israel ^(B)as the stars of heaven. ²⁴ Joab the son of Zeruiah had begun to count them, but did not finish; and because of ^(C)this, wrath came upon Israel, and the number was not included in the account of the chronicles of King David.
