1 Then Satan (the adversary) rose up against Israel (he wrestles with God) and incited David (beloved) to take a census of Israel.

2 So David (beloved) said to Joab (YHWH is father) and the commanders of the troops, “Go and count the Israelites (God prevails) from (well of seven) Beersheba to Dan (He has judged) and bring me a report, so that I may know their number.”
