When it rose against me, I caught it by its beard, struck it, and killed it. 36 Your servant has killed both the lion and the bear, and this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, because he has defied the armies of the living God.

And the angel of the LORD was by the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite. 17 And David spoke to the LORD when he saw the angel who struck the people, and said, Behold, I have sinned, and I have done wickedly: but these sheep, what have they done? let Your hand, I pray You, be against me, and against my father's house. 18 And Gad came that day to David, and said to him, Go up, erect an altar to the LORD in the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite. 19 And David, according to the word of Gad, went up as the LORD commanded. 20 And Araunah looked, and saw the king and his servants coming toward him: and Araunah went out, and bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground. 21 And Araunah said, Why has my lord the king come to his servant? And David said, To buy the threshing floor from you, to build an altar to the LORD, that the plague may be stopped from the people. 22 And Araunah said to David, Let my lord the king take and offer up whatever seems good to him: behold, here are oxen for burnt sacrifice, and threshing instruments and other instruments of the oxen for wood. 23 All these things Araunah, as a king, gave to the king. And Araunah said to the king, May the LORD your God accept you.

  • 1 Chr 21:15-22:1 : 15 And God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroying, the LORD looked, and relented of the evil, and said to the angel who destroyed, It is enough, stay your hand now. And the angel of the LORD stood by the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite. 16 And David lifted his eyes and saw the angel of the LORD standing between the earth and the heavens, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell on their faces. 17 And David said to God, Was it not I who commanded the people to be numbered? It is I who have sinned and done evil indeed; but as for these sheep, what have they done? Let your hand, I pray, O LORD my God, be on me, and on my father's house; but not on your people, that they should be afflicted. 18 Then the angel of the LORD commanded Gad to say to David that David should go up and build an altar to the LORD on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite. 19 And David went up at the word of Gad, which he spoke in the name of the LORD. 20 And Ornan turned and saw the angel; and his four sons with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat. 21 As David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out from the threshing floor, and bowed to David with his face to the ground. 22 Then David said to Ornan, Grant me the place of this threshing floor, that I may build an altar there to the LORD; you shall grant it to me for the full price: that the plague may be stopped from the people. 23 And Ornan said to David, Take it for yourself, and let my lord the king do what is good in his eyes: see, I give the oxen also for burnt offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the grain offering; I give it all. 24 But King David said to Ornan, No; but I will buy it for the full price: for I will not take what is yours for the LORD, nor offer burnt offerings without cost. 25 So David gave to Ornan six hundred shekels of gold by weight for the place. 26 And David built there an altar to the LORD, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings, and called upon the LORD; and he answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of burnt offering. 27 And the LORD commanded the angel; and he put his sword back into its sheath. 28 At that time when David saw that the LORD had answered him in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, he sacrificed there. 29 For the tabernacle of the LORD, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt offering, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon. 30 But David could not go before it to inquire of God; for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of the LORD. 1 Then David said, This is the house of the LORD God, and this is the altar of the burnt offering for Israel.
