1 Chronicles 21:10 In-Context

8 Then David said to God, "I have sinned greatly by what I have done! Now, I beg you to forgive me, your servant, because I have been very foolish."

9 The Lord said to Gad, who was David's seer,

10 "Go and tell David, 'This is what the Lord says: I offer you three choices. Choose one of them and I will do it.'"

11 So Gad went to David and said to him, "This is what the Lord says: 'Choose for yourself

12 three years of hunger. Or choose three months of running from your enemies as they chase you with their swords. Or choose three days of punishment from the Lord, in which a terrible disease will spread through the country. The angel of the Lord will go through Israel destroying the people.' Now, David, decide which of these things I should tell the Lord who sent me."
