Matthew(i)
23 But Dauid toke not the nombre of them vnder .xx. yeare: for the Lord said: he would encrease Israel lyke vnto the starres of the skye.
24 And Ioab the sonne of Zaruiah beganne to nombre. And thoughe he fynyshed it not, yet there fel wrath for that vpon Israel. And therefore the numbre was not put in the chronicles of Kynge Dauid.
