And the Lord commanded the angel; and he put up his sword again into the sheath thereof. (21:27 KJV)
But David could not go before it to inquire of God: for he was afraid because of the sword of the Lord. (21:30 KJV) - A sword is used to describe a very powerful weapon in the Chronicle books of the Old Testament.
And David commanded to gather together the strangers that were in the land of Israel; and he set masons to hew wrought stones to build the house of God. (22:2 KJV) - Strangers build the house of Solomon.
And David said to Solomon, My son, as for me, it was in my mind to build a house unto the name of the Lord my God: But the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Thou hast shed blood abundantly, and hast made great wars: thou shalt not build a house unto my name. (22:7-8 KJV) - King David dies before getting the chance to build Solomon's temple. His son Solomon builds it instead.
The sons of Moses (23:14 KJV) - Moses had sons and a wife, which is somewhat inconvenient for Catholics.
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. (27:23 KJV) - People under twenty were not included in the census.
Joab son of Zeruiah began a census but did not finish, because the census brought wrath upon Israel, and the number was not recorded in the chronicles of King David. (27:23-24 Amp)
