Translations
David cried out to God, 'Was it not I who gave the order to count the people? I am the one who sinned — I did this wrong. But these are only sheep; what did they do? O Yahweh my God, let Your hand fall on me and on my father's house, but spare Your people from this plague.'
David said to Elohim, 'Was it not I who ordered the numbering of the people? I am the one who sinned and acted evilly — but these, these are but sheep; what have they done? O YHWH my Elohim, let Your hand fall on me and on my father's house, but not let this plague remain on Your people.'
And David said unto God, Is it not I that commanded the people to be numbered? even I it is that have sinned and done evil indeed; but as for these sheep, what have they done? let thine hand, I pray thee, O LORD my God, be on me, and on my father's house; but not on thy people, that they should be plagued.
And David said to God, “Was it not I who gave the order to count the people? I am the one who has sinned and acted wickedly. But these sheep, what have they done? O LORD my God, please let Your hand fall upon me and my father’s house, but do not let this plague remain upon Your people.”
