2 Samuel 24:17-25

17And DavidH1732 spakeH559 unto YhwhH3068 when he sawH7200 the angelH4397 that smoteH5221 the peopleH5971, and saidH559, Lo, I have sinnedH2398, and I have done wickedlyH5753: but these sheepH6629, what have they doneH6213? let thine handH3027, I pray thee, be against me, and against my father’sH1 houseH1004.

18And GadH1410 cameH935 that dayH3117 to DavidH1732, and saidH559 unto him, Go upH5927, rearH6965 an altarH4196 unto YhwhH3068 in the threshingfloorH1637 of AraunahH728 the JebusiteH2983.1 19And DavidH1732, according to the sayingH1697 of GadH1410, went upH5927 as YhwhH3068 commandedH6680. 20And AraunahH728 lookedH8259, and sawH7200 the kingH4428 and his servantsH5650 coming onH5674 toward him: and AraunahH728 went outH3318, and bowedH7812 himself before the kingH4428 on his faceH639 upon the groundH776. 21And AraunahH728 saidH559, Wherefore is my lordH113 the kingH4428 comeH935 to his servantH5650? And DavidH1732 saidH559, To buyH7069 the threshingfloorH1637 of thee, to buildH1129 an altarH4196 unto YhwhH3068, that the plagueH4046 may be stayedH6113 from the peopleH5971. 22And AraunahH728 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, Let my lordH113 the kingH4428 takeH3947 and offer upH5927 what seemeth goodH2896 unto himH5869: beholdH7200, here be oxenH1241 for burnt sacrificeH5930, and threshing instrumentsH4173 and other instrumentsH3627 of the oxenH1241 for woodH6086. 23All these things did AraunahH728, as a kingH4428, giveH5414 unto the kingH4428. And AraunahH728 saidH559 unto the kingH4428, YhwhH3068 thy GodH430 acceptH7521 thee. 24And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto AraunahH728, Nay; but I will surelyH7069 buyH7069 it of thee at a priceH4242: neither will I offerH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 unto YhwhH3068 my GodH430 of that which doth cost me nothingH2600. So DavidH1732 boughtH7069 the threshingfloorH1637 and the oxenH1241 for fiftyH2572 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701. 25And DavidH1732 builtH1129 there an altarH4196 unto YhwhH3068, and offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 and peace offeringsH8002. So YhwhH3068 was intreatedH6279 for the landH776, and the plagueH4046 was stayedH6113 from IsraelH3478.
