2 Samuel 24:18-24
18So GadH1410 cameH935 to DavidH1732 that dayH3117 and saidH559 to him, “1GoH5927 up, erectH6965 an altarH4196 to the LordH3068 on the threshingH1637 floorH1637 of 2AraunahH728 the JebusiteH2983.”
19DavidH1732 wentH5927 up according to the wordH1697 of GadH1410, justH3512 as the LordH3068 had commandedH6680.
20AraunahH728 lookedH8259 downH8259 and sawH7200 the kingH4428 and his servantsH5650 crossingH5674 overH5674 towardH5921 him; and AraunahH728 wentH3318 out and bowedH7812 his faceH639 to the groundH776 before the kingH4428.
21Then AraunahH728 saidH559, “WhyH4069 has my lordH113 the kingH4428 comeH935 to his servantH5650?” And DavidH1732 saidH559, “To buyH7069 the threshingH1637 floorH1637 from you, in order to buildH1129 an altarH4196 to the LordH3068, 3that the plagueH4046 may be heldH6113 backH6113 from the peopleH5971.”
22AraunahH728 saidH559 to DavidH1732, “Let my lordH113 the kingH4428 takeH3947 and offerH5927 up whatH2896 is goodH2896 in his sightH5869. LookH7200, 4the oxenH1241 for the burntH5930 offeringH5930, the threshingH4173 sledgesH4173 and the yokesH3627 of the oxenH1241 for the woodH6086.
23EverythingH3605, O kingH4428, AraunahH728 givesH5414 to the kingH4428.” And AraunahH728 saidH559 to the kingH4428, “May the LordH3068 your GodH430 5acceptH7521 you.”
24However, the kingH4428 saidH559 to AraunahH728, “NoH3808, but I will surelyH7069 buyH7069 it from you for a priceH4242, for 6I will not offerH5927 burntH5930 offeringsH5930 to the LordH3068 my GodH430 7whichH2600 costH2600 me nothingH2600.” So 8DavidH1732 boughtH7069 the threshingH1637 floorH1637 and the oxenH1241 for fiftyH2572 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701.
