But Joab replied,“ May the Lord multiply his troops a hundred times over. My lord the king, are they not all my lord’s subjects? Why does my lord want to do this? Why should he bring guilt on Israel?”

Joab replied,“ May the Lord multiply his troops 100 times. King David, you are my master. Aren’t all the men under your control? Why would you want me to count them? Do you want to make Israel guilty?”

But Joab said,“ May the Lord add to his people a hundred times as many as they are! Are they not, my lord the king, all of them my lord’s servants? Why then should my lord require this? Why should it be a cause of guilt for Israel?”

But Joab replied,“ May the Lord increase the number of his people a hundred times over! But why, my lord the king, do you want to do this? Are they not all your servants? Why must you cause Israel to sin?”

耶和華啊，你增添了國民，你增添了國民！你得了榮耀！你擴展了國土的四境！

君王的尊嚴，在於民多；沒有民眾，國君就敗亡。

願耶和華使你們增多，使你們和你們的子孫增多。

我兒啊，不要這樣，我所聽見耶和華子民傳來的風聲實在不好。

亞比米勒又召來亞伯拉罕，對他說：「你對我們做了什麼呢？我是怎麼對你犯罪的，以致你把這樣的大罪帶給了我和我的國？你對我做了不應該做的事。」

你的後裔也會多如沙粒，你腹中所生的會多如細沙；他們的名號在我面前不會被剪除，也不會被除滅。」
