2 Samuel 24:10

And David’s heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And David said unto the LORD, I have sinned greatly in that I have done: and now, I beseech thee, O LORD, take away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.

KJV

Percussit autem cor David eum, postquam numeratus est populus : et dixit David ad Dominum : Peccavi valde in hoc facto : sed precor, Domine, ut transferas iniquitatem servi tui, quia stulte egi nimis.

Vulgate

Καὶ ἐπάταξεν καρδία Δαυεὶδ αὐτὸν μετὰ τὸ ἀριθμῆσαι τὸν λαόν· καὶ εἶπεν Δαυεὶδ πρὸς Κύριον Ἥμαρτον σφόδρα ὃ ἐποίησα· νῦν, Κύριε, παραβίβασον δὴ τὴν ἀνομίαν τοῦ δούλου σου, ὅτι ἐμωράνθην σφόδρα.

LXX

And David’s heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And David said unto Jehovah, I have sinned greatly in that which I have done: but now, O Jehovah, put away, I beseech thee, the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.
