“‘ When a leader sins unintentionally and does what is forbidden in any of the commands of the Lord his God, when he realizes his guilt

“‘ Or suppose a leader sins without meaning to. He disobeys any of the commands of the Lord his God.

“ When a leader sins, doing unintentionally any one of all the things that by the commandments of the Lord his God ought not to be done, and realizes his guilt,

“ If one of Israel’s leaders sins by violating one of the commands of the Lord his God but doesn’t realize it, he is still guilty.

大衛在位年間有饑荒，一連三年，大衛求問耶和華，耶和華說：「掃羅和他家犯了流人血之罪，因為他殺死了基遍人。」大衛王召了基遍人來，跟他們說話。基遍人不是以色列人，而是亞摩利人中所剩下的人。以色列人曾向他們起誓，掃羅卻為以色列人和猶大人大發熱心，追殺他們，為了要消滅他們。大衛對基遍人說：「我當為你們做甚麼呢？要用甚麼贖這罪，使你們為耶和華的產業祝福呢？」

以色列人中的二百五十個領袖，就是有名望、從會眾中選出來的人，在摩西面前一同起來，

摩西和以利亞撒祭司，以及會眾中所有的領袖，都出營迎接他們。

你也要從百姓中選出有才能的人，敬畏神、誠實可靠、恨惡不義之財的人，派他們作千夫長、百夫長、五十夫長、十夫長來管理百姓。

大衛數點百姓以後，心中自責。大衛向耶和華說：「我做這事大大有罪了。耶和華啊，現在求你除掉僕人的罪孽，因我所做的非常愚昧。」大衛早晨起來，耶和華的話臨到迦得先知，就是大衛的先見，說：「你去告訴大衛：『耶和華如此說：我向你提出三樣，隨你選擇一樣，我好降給你。』」於是迦得來到大衛那裏告訴他，問他：「你要國中有七年的饑荒呢？或是你在敵人面前逃跑，被追趕三個月呢？或是在你國中有三日的瘟疫呢？現在你要考慮思量，我怎樣去回覆那差我來的。」大衛對迦得說：「我很為難。我們寧願落在耶和華的手裏，因為他有豐盛的憐憫；我不願落在人的手裏。」於是，耶和華降瘟疫給以色列。自早晨到所定的時候，從但直到別是巴，百姓中死了七萬人。天使向耶路撒冷伸手要毀滅這城的時候，耶和華改變心意，不降那災難，就對那在百姓中施行毀滅的天使說：「夠了！住手吧！」耶和華的使者正在耶布斯人亞勞拿的禾場那裏。大衛看見那在百姓中施行毀滅的天使，就向耶和華說：「看哪，我犯了罪，行了惡，但這羣羊做了甚麼呢？願你的手攻擊我和我的父家。」
