Liturgy for I Chronicles 21:13
וַיֹּ֧אמֶר דָּוִ֛יד אֶל־גָּ֖ד צַר־לִ֣י מְאֹ֑ד אֶפְּלָה־נָּ֣א בְיַד־יְהוָ֗ה כִּֽי־רַבִּ֤ים רַחֲמָיו֙ מְאֹ֔ד וּבְיַד־אָדָ֖ם אַל־אֶפֹּֽל׃
And David said unto Gad: ‘I am in a great strait; let me fall now into the hand of the LORD, for very great are His mercies; and let me not fall into the hand of man.’
Selichot Edot HaMizrach
(Some are accustomed to say:) In my remembering upon my bed, the wantonness of my heart and its faults, I will get up and go to the House of my God and His footstool. And I will say in raising my eye, in my supplications, to His skies, "Let us fall into the hand of the Lord, for His compassion is great" (II Samuel 24:14).
