1 Chronicles 27

²³ But David did not count those twenty years of age and under, because the Lord had said He would multiply Israel as the stars of heaven.
²⁴ Joab the son of Zeruiah had begun to count them, but did not finish; and because of this, wrath came upon Israel, and the number was not included in the account of the chronicles of King David.
