And David spake unto Jehovah when he saw the angel that smote the people, and said, Lo, I have sinned, and I have done perversely; but these sheep, what have they done? let thy hand, I pray thee, be against me, and against my father’s house.

And when David saw the angel who was causing the destruction of the people, he said to the Lord, Truly, the sin is mine; I have done wrong: but these are only sheep; what have they done? let your hand be against me and against my family.

Και ελαλησεν ο Δαβιδ προς τον Κυριον, οτε ειδε τον αγγελον τον θανατονοντα τον λαον, και ειπεν, Ιδου, εγω ημαρτον και εγω ηνομησα· ταυτα δε τα προβατα τι επραξαν; κατ' εμου λοιπον εστω η χειρ σου και κατα του οικου του πατρος μου.
