Context
1And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel.
2And David said to Joab and to the rulers of the people, Go, number Israel from Beer-sheba even to Dan; and bring the number of them to me, that I may know
3And Joab answered, The LORD make his people an hundred times so many more as they but, my lord the king, they not all my lord’s servants? why then doth my lord require this thing? why will he be a cause of trespass to Israel?
4Nevertheless the king’s word prevailed against Joab. Wherefore Joab departed, and went throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.
5And Joab gave the sum of the number of the people unto David. And all Israel were a thousand thousand and an hundred thousand men that drew sword: and Judah four hundred threescore and ten thousand men that drew sword.
