2 Samuel 24:13-14 ▼

13 When Gad came to David, he told David this and asked, |Should seven years of famine come to you and your land, or three months during which you flee from your enemies as they pursue you, or should there be a three-day plague in your land? Think it over, and decide what answer I should give the one who sent me.|

14 |I'm in a desperate situation,| David told Gad. |Please let us fall into the LORD's hands because he is very merciful. But don't let me fall into human hands.|
