* And the LORD spake unto Gad , David 's seer , saying , * Go and tell David , saying , Thus saith the LORD , I offer thee three things : choose thee one of them , that I may do it unto thee . * So Gad came to David , and said unto him , Thus saith the LORD , Choose thee * Either three years ' famine ; or three months to be destroyed before thy foes , while that the sword of thine enemies overtaketh thee ; or else three days the sword of the LORD , even the pestilence , in the land , and the angel of the LORD destroying throughout all the coasts of Israel . Now therefore advise thyself what word I shall bring again to him that sent me . * And David said unto Gad , I am in a great strait : let me fall now into the hand of the LORD ; for very great are his mercies : but let me not fall into the hand of man .
