2 Samuel 24:16 · Berean Standard Bible

Context
14Daudi akamjibu Gadi, “Nitataabika sana. Afadhali tuangukie mikononi mwa Bwana, kwa maana rehema zake ni kuu, lakini usiniache nianguke mikononi mwa wanadamu.” 15Basi Bwana akatuma tauni katika Israeli kuanzia asubuhi mpaka mwisho wa muda ulioamriwa, wakafa watu 70,000 kuanzia Dani hadi Beer-Sheba. 16Malaika aliponyoosha mkono wake ili kuangamiza Yerusalemu, Bwana akahuzunika kwa sababu ya maafa, akamwambia yule malaika aliyekuwa anawadhuru watu, “Yatosha! Rudisha mkono wako.” Wakati huo malaika wa Bwana alikuwa kwenye sakafu ya kupuria ya Arauna,* Myebusi. 17Ikawa Daudi alipomwona huyo malaika aliyekuwa akiwaua watu, akamwambia Bwana, “Mimi ndiye niliyetenda dhambi na kukosa. Hawa ni kondoo tu. Wamefanya nini? Mkono wako uwe juu yangu na nyumba yangu.” 18Siku hiyo Gadi akamwendea Daudi na kumwambia, “Panda ukamjengee Bwana madhabahu kwenye sakafu ya kupuria ya Arauna Myebusi.”
