    21As David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David. He went out from the threshing floor and bowed down before David with his face to the ground.

    22David said to Ornan, "Let me have the site of your threshing floor so I can build an altar to the LORD on it. Sell it to me at the full price, so the plague on the people may be stopped."

    23Ornan replied to David, "Take it! Let my lord the king do whatever pleases him. Look, I will give the oxen for burnt offerings, the threshing sledges for wood, and the wheat for the grain offering—I give it all."

    24But King David said to Ornan, "No! I insist on paying the full price in silver. I will not take what is yours for the LORD or offer burnt offerings that cost me nothing."

    25So David paid Ornan six hundred shekels of gold by weight for the site.

    26There David built an altar to the LORD and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. He called on the LORD, and He answered him with fire from heaven on the altar of the burnt offering.

    27Then the LORD commanded the angel to put his sword back into its sheath.

    28At that time, when David saw that the LORD had answered him at the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, he offered sacrifices there.

    29The tabernacle of the LORD, which Moses had made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt offering were at that time on the high place at Gibeon.

    30But David could not go before it to seek God because he was terrified of the sword of the angel of the LORD.

    15God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it. But as the angel was about to destroy, the LORD saw, relented of the calamity, and said to the destroying angel, "Enough! Withdraw your hand now." The angel of the LORD was then standing by the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

    16David lifted his eyes and saw the angel of the LORD standing between heaven and earth with a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell facedown.

    17David said to God, "Was it not I who gave the command to count the people? I am the one who has sinned and acted wickedly. But these sheep, what have they done? LORD my God, let Your hand fall on me and my family, but do not let this plague remain on Your people."

    18Then the angel of the LORD ordered Gad to tell David to go up and build an altar to the LORD on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

    19So David went up in obedience to the word that Gad had spoken in the name of the LORD.

    16But when the angel stretched out his hand to destroy Jerusalem, the Lord relented concerning the disaster and said to the angel who was striking the people, "Enough! Withdraw your hand." The angel of the Lord was then at the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.

    17When David saw the angel striking the people, he said to the Lord, "I alone have sinned; I, the shepherd, have acted wickedly. But these sheep, what have they done? Let Your hand fall upon me and my family."

    18That day, Gad came to David and said to him, "Go up and build an altar to the Lord on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite."

    19So David went up, as the Lord had commanded through Gad.

    20When Araunah saw the king and his officials coming toward him, he went out and bowed down before the king with his face to the ground.

    21Araunah said, "Why has my lord the king come to his servant?" David replied, "To buy your threshing floor so I can build an altar to the Lord, and the plague may be stopped from affecting the people."

    22Araunah said to David, "Let my lord the king take whatever pleases him and offer it up. Here are oxen for the burnt offering, and the threshing sledges and ox yokes for the wood.

    23Everything, O king, Araunah gives to the king." Araunah also said to the king, "May the Lord your God accept you."

    24But the king said to Araunah, "No, I insist on paying you for it. I will not offer to the Lord my God burnt offerings that cost me nothing." So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.

    25David built an altar to the Lord there and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. Then the Lord answered prayer on behalf of the land, and the plague on Israel was stopped.
