Exodus 30:12 - When thou takest the sum of the children of Israel after their number, then shall they give every man a ransom for his soul unto the LORD, when thou numberest them; that there be no plague among them, when thou numberest them.
NOTE: This explains God's wrath against King David when he numbered the people. David ordered a census but not the collection of the redemption money, II Samuel 24; I Chronicles 21.
