NASB | 1 Chronicles 21:1 Then Satan stood up against Israel and moved David to number Israel. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Chronicles 21:1 Satan [the adversary] stood up against Israel and incited David to count [the population of] Israel. |
Bible Question (short): Is this a contradiction? |
Question (full): In one verse we are told that Satan incited David to take a census of Israel (1 Chronicles 21:1). In another verse we are told that the Lord incited David to take this census (2 Samuel 24:1). Which account are we to believe? |
