And David’s [beloved]’s heart struck him after that he had numbered the people. And David [beloved] said unto the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), I have sinned greatly in that I have done: and now, I beseech (to call upon; appeal; beg) youi, O LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), take away the iniquity of youi servant; for I have done very foolishly.

For when David [beloved] was up in the morning, the word of the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) came unto the prophet Gad [Good Fortune with Troublesome Effort], David’s [beloved]’s seer, saying,

Go and say unto David [beloved], Thus says the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), I offer youi three [things]; choose youi one of them, that I may [do it] unto youi.

So Gad [Good Fortune with Troublesome Effort] came to David [beloved], and told him, and said unto him, Shall seven years of famine come unto youi in youri land? or will youi flee three months before youri enemies, while they pursue youi? or that there be three days’ pestilence in youri land? now advise, and see what answer I shall return to him that sent me.
