2 Samuel 24:16-24

16And the angelH4397 stretchedH7971 out his handH3027 upon JerusalemH3389 to destroyH7843 it; but Jehovah repentedH5162 him of the evilH7451, and saidH559 to the angelH4397 that destroyedH7843 among the peopleH5971, It is enoughH7227: withdraw nowH6258 thine handH3027. And the angelH4397 of Jehovah wasH1961 by the threshing-floor of AraunahH728 the JebusiteH2983.

17And DavidH1732 spoke to Jehovah when he sawH7200 the angelH4397 that smote among the peopleH5971, and saidH559, Behold, it is I that have sinnedH2398, and it is I that have committed iniquity; but these sheepH6629, what have they done? let thy handH3027, I pray thee, beH1961 on me, and on my father's houseH1004!

18And GadH1410 cameH935 that dayH3117 to DavidH1732, and saidH559 to him, GoH935 up, rear an altarH4196 to Jehovah in the threshing-floor of AraunahH728 the JebusiteH2983.

19And DavidH1732, according to the saying of GadH1410, wentH5927 up as Jehovah had commandedH6680.

20And AraunahH728 lookedH7200, and sawH7200 the kingH4428 and his servantsH5650 comingH3318 on towards him; and AraunahH728 wentH3318 out, and bowedH7812 himself before the kingH4428 with his faceH639 to the groundH776.

21And AraunahH728 saidH559, WhyH4069 is my lord the kingH4428 comeH935 to his servantH5650? And DavidH1732 saidH559, To buyH7069 the threshing-floor of thee, to buildH1129 an altarH4196 to Jehovah, that the plagueH4046 may be stayed from the peopleH5971.

22And AraunahH728 saidH559 to DavidH1732, Let my lordH113 the kingH4428 takeH3947 and offerH5927 up that which is goodH2896 in his sight: seeH7200, [here are] oxenH1241 for the burnt-offering, and the threshing-sledges and implements of the oxenH1241 for woodH6086.

23All these things, O kingH4428, doth AraunahH728 giveH5414 to the kingH4428. And AraunahH728 saidH559 to the kingH4428, Jehovah thy 1GodH430 acceptH7521 thee.

24And the kingH4428 saidH559 to AraunahH728, No; but I will in any case buyH7069 [them] of thee at a price: neither will I offerH5927 up to Jehovah my 2GodH430 burnt-offerings without cost. And DavidH1732 boughtH7069 the threshing-floor and the oxenH1241 for fiftyH2572 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701.
