1 Chronicles 27:23
But David took not the number of them from twenty years old and under: because the LORD had said he would increase Israel like to the stars of the heavens.
KJV
Noluit autem David numerare eos a viginti annis inferius : quia dixerat Dominus ut multiplicaret Israël quasi stellas cæli.
Vulgate
καὶ οὐκ ἔλαβεν Δαυεὶδ τὸν ἀριθμὸν αὐτῶν ἀπὸ εἰκοσαετοῦς καὶ κάτω, ὅτι Κύριος εἶπεν πληθῦναι τὸν Ἰσραὴλ ὡς τοὺς ἀστέρας τοῦ οὐρανοῦ.
LXX
But David took not the number of them from twenty years old and under, because Jehovah had said he would increase Israel like to the stars of heaven.
