Verse 5 is found in chapter 21 of 1 Chronicles. David orders a census of Israel and later acknowledges his sin. The episode focuses on the spiritual consequences of trusting in a measurement of national power rather than depending on God. The plague demonstrates the communal dimension of the king’s sin, while David finally confesses and asks that the punishment fall on him rather than the people.
