1 Chronicles 21:18-30
18Then the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 commandedH559 GadH1410 to sayH559 to DavidH1732, that DavidH1732 should goH5927 upH5927, and rear an altarH4196 unto the LORDH3068 in the threshing-floor of OrnanH771 the JebusiteH2983. 19And DavidH1732 wentH5927 upH5927 at the sayingH1697 of GadH1410, whichH834 he spake in the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068. 20And OrnanH771 turnedH7725 backH7725, and sawH7200 the angelH4397; and his fourH702 sonsH1121 that were with him hidH2244 themselvesH2244. Now OrnanH771 was threshingH1758 wheatH2406. 21And as DavidH1732 cameH935 to OrnanH771, OrnanH771 lookedH7200 and sawH7200 DavidH1732, and wentH3318 outH3318 of the threshing-floor, and bowedH7812 himselfH7812 to DavidH1732 with his faceH639 to the groundH776. 22Then DavidH1732 saidH559 to OrnanH771, GiveH5414 meH413 the placeH4725 of this threshing-floor, that I may buildH1129 thereonH5921 an altarH4196 unto the LORDH3068: for the fullH4392 priceH3701 shalt thou giveH5414 it meH413: that the plagueH4046 may be stayedH6113 from the peopleH5971. 23And OrnanH771 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, TakeH3947 it to thee, and letH5414 my lordH113 the kingH4428 doH6213 that whichH5869 is goodH2896 in his eyesH5869: lo, I giveH5414 thee the oxenH1241 for burntH5930 offeringsH4503, and the threshingH4173 instruments for woodH6086, and the wheatH2406 for the mealH4503 offering; I giveH5414 it allH3605. 24And kingH4428 DavidH1732 saidH559 to OrnanH771, Nay; but I will verily buyH7069 it for the fullH4392 priceH3701: for I will notH3808 takeH5375 that whichH834 is thine for the LORDH3068, norH3808 offerH5927 a burntH5930 offering withoutH3808 costH2600. 25SoH5414 DavidH1732 gaveH5414 to OrnanH771 for the placeH4725 sixH8337 hundredH3967 shekelsH8255 of goldH2091 by weightH4948. 26And DavidH1732 builtH1129 there an altarH4196 unto the LORDH3068, and offeredH5927 burntH5930 offeringsH8002 and peaceH8002 offeringsH8002, and calledH7121 uponH5921 the LORDH3068; and he answeredH6030 him from heavenH8064 by fireH784 uponH5921 the altarH4196 of burntH5930 offering. 27And the LORDH3068 commandedH559 the angelH4397; and he putH7725 upH413 his swordH2719 againH7725 intoH413 the sheathH5084 thereof. 28At that time, when DavidH1732 sawH7200 that the LORDH3068 had answeredH6030 him in the threshing-floor of OrnanH771 the JebusiteH2983, then he sacrificedH2076 there. 29For the tabernacleH4908 of the LORDH3068, whichH834 MosesH4872 madeH6213 in the wildernessH4057, and the altarH4196 of burntH5930 offering, were at that time in the highH1116 placeH1116 at GibeonH1391. 30But DavidH1732 couldH3201 notH3808 go beforeH6440 it to inquireH1875 of GodH430: for he was afraid becauseH3588 of the swordH2719 of the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068.
