And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let me fall now into the hand of the LORD; for very great are his mercies: but let me not fall into the hand of man.
David le dijo a Gad: 'Estoy en una situación terrible sin buenas opciones. Déjame enfrentar el castigo de Dios, porque su misericordia es increíblemente grande. Pero no permitas que caiga en manos de la gente.'
David prefirió enfrentar el castigo divino antes que el humano, confiando en la gran misericordia de Dios.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This verse comes after David sinned by conducting a census of Israel against God's will, likely motivated by pride in his military strength. The prophet Gad offered David three possible punishments from God: three years of famine, three months of defeat by enemies, or three days of plague. David had to choose which consequence he would face for his disobedience.
