And David’s heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And David said unto the LORD, I have sinned greatly in that I have done: and now, I beseech thee, O LORD, take away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.
Después de que David había contado a toda la gente, su corazón lo turbó con culpa. David le dijo al SEÑOR: 'He pecado grandemente en lo que he hecho. Ahora te ruego, SEÑOR, por favor quita la culpa de tu siervo, porque he actuado muy neciamente.'
David reconoció su pecado ante Dios después de contar al pueblo y le pidió perdón por su necedad.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This comes after David ordered a census of Israel's fighting men, which was seen as showing pride in military strength rather than trust in God's protection. In ancient Israel, taking a census could also be viewed as preparing for taxation or forced military service, potentially burdening the people. David's conscience convicted him that his motives were wrong, likely driven by pride rather than dependence on God.
