| 4 | However, the king overruled Joab. So Joab left, went throughout Israel, and returned to Jerusalem. | But the king’s word prevailed against Joab. So Joab departed and went throughout all Israel and came back to Jerusalem. | The king’s word, however, overruled Joab; so Joab left and went throughout Israel and then came back to Jerusalem. | |
| 5 | Joab reported the census figures to David: In Israel there were 1,100,000 men who could serve in the army, and in Judah there were 470,000 who could serve in the army. | And Joab gave the sum of the numbering of the people to David. In all Israel there were 1,100,000 men who drew the sword, and in Judah 470,000 who drew the sword. | Joab reported the number of the fighting men to David: In all Israel there were one million one hundred thousand men who could handle a sword, including four hundred and seventy thousand in Judah. | |
| 6 | Joab didn't include Levi and Benjamin in the number because he was disgusted with the king's order. | But he did not include Levi and Benjamin in the numbering, for the king’s command was abhorrent to Joab. | But Joab did not include Levi and Benjamin in the numbering, because the king’s command was repulsive to him. | |
