1 Chronicles 21:10 In-Context

8 And David said to God, “I have sinned greatly in that I have done this thing. But now, please take away the iniquity of your servant, for I have acted very foolishly. ”

9 And the Lord spoke to Gad, David’s seer, saying,

10 “Go and say to David, ‘Thus says the Lord, Three things I offer you; choose one of them, that I may do it to you. ’”

11 So Gad came to David and said to him, “Thus says the Lord, ‘Choose what you will:

12 either three years of famine, or three months of devastation by your foes while the sword of your enemies overtakes you, or else three days of the sword of the Lord, pestilence on the land, with the angel of the Lord destroying throughout all the territory of Israel. ’ Now decide what answer I shall return to him who sent me. ”
