1 Chronicles 21:10-12

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁰ Go, and speak to David, and tell him: Thus saith the Lord: I give thee the choice of three things: choose one which thou wilt, and I will do it to thee.

¹¹ And when Gad was come to David, he said to him: Thus saith the Lord: choose which thou wilt:

¹² Either three years' famine: or three months to flee from thy enemies, and not to be able to escape their sword: or three days to have the sword of the Lord, and pestilence in the land, and the angel of the Lord destroying in all the coasts of Israel: now therefore see what I shall answer him who sent me.
