4 Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab. Therefore Joab departed, and went throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem. 5 Joab gave up the sum of the numbering of the people to David. All those of Israel were one million one hundred thousand men who drew sword: and in Judah were four hundred seventy thousand men who drew sword. 6 But he did not count Levi and Benjamin among them; for the king's word was abominable to Joab. 1 Chronicles 21:4-6, New Heart English Bible.
