2 Samuel 24:2

So the king said to Joab , the commander of the army , who was with him, Go through all the tribes of Israel , from Dan to Beersheba , and number the people , that I may know the number of the people .

So the king said to Joab and the army commanders with him, “Go throughout the tribes of Israel from Dan to Beersheba and enroll the fighting men, so that I may know how many there are.”

For the king said to Joab the captain of the host, which was with him, Go now through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beer–sheba, and number ye the people, that I may know the number of the people.
