1 Chronicles 21:3-5

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

³ And Joab answered, May the Lord multiply His people a hundred times! But, my lord the king, are they not all my lord’s servants? Why then does my lord require this? Why will he bring guilt upon Israel?

⁴ But the king’s word prevailed against Joab. So Joab departed and went throughout all Israel and came to Jerusalem.

⁵ Joab gave the total number of the people to David. And all of Israel were 1,100,000 who drew the sword, and of Judah 470,000 who drew the sword.
