22. Dan: Azar’ĕl son of Yeroḥam. These were the rulers of the tribes of Yisra’ĕl.

23. But Dawiḏ did not take the number of those twenty years old and under, because יהוה had said He would increase Yisra’ĕl like the stars of the heavens.

24. Yo’aḇ son of Tseruyah began a census, but he did not finish, for wrath came upon Yisra’ĕl because of this census; nor was the number recorded in the account of the annals of Sovereign Dawiḏ.
