17Davi disse a Deus: “Não fui eu quem mandou contar o povo? Fui eu mesmo quem pecou e agiu com muita maldade; mas estas ovelhas, o que elas fizeram? Por favor, que a tua mão, ó SENHOR meu Deus, seja contra mim e contra a casa do meu pai; mas não contra o teu povo, para que não seja atingido pela praga.”
Reina-Valera 1909
17Y alzando David sus ojos, vió al ángel de Jehová, que estaba entre el cielo y la tierra, teniendo un espada desnuda en su mano, extendida contra Jerusalem. Entonces David y los ancianos se postraron sobre sus rostros, cubiertos de sacos.
King James Version
17And David said unto God, Is it not I that commanded the people to be numbered? even I it is that have sinned and done evil indeed; but as for these sheep, what have they done? let thine hand, I pray thee, O LORD my God, be on me, and on my father’s house; but not on thy people, that they should be plagued.
World English Bible
17David said to God, “Isn’t it I who commanded the people to be counted? It is even I who have sinned and done very wickedly; but these sheep, what have they done? Please let your hand, O LORD my God, be against me and against my father’s house; but not against your people, that they should be plagued.”
