And 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.
David le dijo a Dios: '¿No fui yo quien mandó contar al pueblo? Yo soy el que pecó e hice lo malo. Pero esta gente son como ovejas inocentes, ¿qué hicieron mal? Por favor, SEÑOR mi Dios, que tu castigo caiga sobre mí y mi familia, pero no sobre tu pueblo que no debería sufrir por esto.'
David le pidió a Dios que lo castigara a él en lugar de al pueblo inocente por su pecado de hacer el censo.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the historical context of ancient Israel, King David ordered a census of his people, which was seen as an act of pride and distrust in God's provision rather than reliance on divine strength. This decision provoked God's anger, leading to a severe plague upon the nation as a judgment. David, upon recognizing his error, confessed his sin and interceded for the innocent people, asking God to direct the punishment toward himself instead.
