1 Chronicles 21:10-12

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

¹⁰ ‘Go and say to David, “This is what the Lord says: I am offering you three choices. Choose one of them for yourself, and I will do it to you.” ’

¹¹ So Gad went to David and said to him, ‘This is what the Lord says: “Take your choice: ¹² three years of famine, or three months of devastation by your foes with the sword of your enemy overtaking you, or three days of the sword of the Lord – a plague on the land, the angel of the Lord bringing destruction to the whole territory of Israel.” Now decide what answer I should take back to the one who sent me.’
