然約押為王命所迫、遂往遍行以色列境、返耶路撒冷、

第王之命促約押、約押遂出、遍行以色列地而歸、至耶路撒冷、

The king’s word, however, overruled Joab; so Joab left and went throughout Israel and then came back to Jerusalem.

But the king insisted that they take the census, so Joab traveled throughout all Israel to count the people. Then he returned to Jerusalem

约押说：“我主我王，愿你的上帝耶和华使国民增加百倍，让你亲眼看到。但我主我王为什么要统计人口呢？”但大卫不听约押和其他将领的规劝。他们只好去统计以色列的人数。他们过了约旦河，在谷中亚罗珥城南面安营，又经过迦得前往雅谢。然后，他们到基列、他停·合示地区、但·雅安，绕到西顿，再去泰尔的堡垒及希未人和迦南人的城邑。最后，他们到了犹大南部的别示巴。他们花了九个月零二十天的时间，走遍全国，最后回到耶路撒冷。

彼得和其他使徒申辩说：“我们要服从的是上帝，而非人。

况且，王的命令至高无上，谁敢质问他呢？

即或不然，王啊，你要明白，我们也不会事奉你的神明或祭拜你立的金像。”
