15 So the Lord sent a pestilence on Israel from the morning until the appointed time. And there died of the people from Dan to Beersheba 70,000 men. 16 And when the angel stretched out his hand toward Jerusalem to destroy it, the Lord ^qrelented from the calamity and said to the angel who was working destruction among the people, “It is enough; now stay your hand.” And the ^rangel of the Lord was by the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
