And God sent the Angel to Jerusalem to destroy it. As he was destroying, Jehovah looked and was moved to compassion regarding the evil, and said to the Angel who was destroying, It is enough; now restrain Your hand. And the Angel of Jehovah stood by the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

And David lifted his eyes and saw the Angel of Jehovah standing between earth and the heavens, having in his hand a drawn sword stretched out over Jerusalem. And David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell on their faces.

And when the Angel stretched out His hand over Jerusalem to destroy it, Jehovah was moved to compassion regarding the evil, and said to the Angel who was destroying the people, Enough! Now restrain your hand. And the Angel of Jehovah was by the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.

Bless Jehovah, you His angels, who excel in strength, who do His Word, heeding the voice of His Word.

Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who are about to inherit salvation.

either three years of famine, or three months of being defeated before your foes with the sword of your enemies overtaking you, or else for three days the sword of Jehovah; the plague in the land, with the Angel of Jehovah destroying throughout all the territory of Israel. Now consider what word I shall return to the One sending me.

And Ornan turned and saw the Angel; and his four sons who were with him hid themselves. Now Ornan had been threshing wheat.

O sword of Jehovah, how long will it be until you are quiet? Put yourself into your sheath; rest and be still.

Return it to its sheath. I will judge you in the place where you were created, in the land of your birth.

But Jesus said to him, Put your sword in its place, for all who take the sword will perish by the sword.

So Jesus said to Peter, Put your sword into the sheath. Shall I not drink the cup which My Father has given Me?
