18 And the angel of YHWH spoke to Gad, to say to David that David should go and erect an altar to YHWH on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite. Now the angel of the LORD had commanded Gad to say to David that David should go up and raise an altar to the LORD on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite. Then 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 Araunah the Jebusite.
19 And David went up at the word of Gad, which he had spoken in the name of YHWH. So David went up at Gad’s word, which he had spoken in the name of the LORD. So David went up in obedience to the word that Gad had spoken in the name of the LORD.
20 And Ornan turned and saw the angel. And his four sons with him hid themselves, and Ornan was threshing wheat. Now Ornan was threshing wheat. He turned and saw the angel, and his four sons who were with him hid themselves. While Araunah was threshing wheat, he turned and saw the angel; his four sons who were with him hid themselves.
21 And David came to Ornan, and Ornan looked and saw David, and he went out from the threshing floor and bowed before David with his face to the ground. As David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David and went out from the threshing floor and paid homage to David with his face to the ground. Then David approached, and when Araunah looked and saw him, he left the threshing floor and bowed down before David with his face to the ground.
22 And David said to Ornan, “Grant me the place of the threshing floor, that I may build on it an altar to YHWH. At the full price you shall grant it to me, that the plague may be withdrawn from the people.” And David said to Ornan, “Give me the site of the threshing floor that I may build on it an altar to the LORD—give it to me at its full price—that the plague may be averted from the people.” David said to him, “Let me have the site of your threshing floor so I can build an altar to the LORD, that the plague on the people may be stopped. Sell it to me at the full price.”
23 And Ornan said to David, “Take it to yourself, and let my lord the king do good in his eyes. See, I give you the oxen for burnt offerings, and the threshing sledges for wood, and the wheat for the grain offering; all I have given.” Then Ornan said to David, “Take it, and let my lord the king do what seems good to him. See, I give the oxen for burnt offerings and the threshing sledges for the wood and the wheat for a grain offering; I give it all.” Araunah said to David, “Take it! Let my lord the king do whatever pleases him. Look, I will give the oxen for the burnt offerings, the threshing sledges for the wood, and the wheat for the grain offering. I will give all this.”
24 And King David said to Ornan, “No, but I will surely buy it for the full price; for I will not take what is yours for YHWH, so as to offer a burnt offering without cost.” But King David said to Ornan, “No, but I will buy them for the full price. I will not take for the LORD what is yours, nor offer burnt offerings that cost me nothing.” But King David replied to Araunah, “No, I insist on paying the full price. I will not take for the LORD what is yours, or sacrifice a burnt offering that costs me nothing.”
25 And David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of gold by weight. So David paid Ornan 600 shekels of gold by weight for the site. So David paid Araunah six hundred shekels of gold for the site.
26 And David built there an altar to YHWH, and he offered burnt offerings and peace offerings, and he called to YHWH. And He answered him by fire from the heavens on the altar of the burnt offering. And David built there an altar to the LORD and presented burnt offerings and peace offerings and called on the LORD, and the LORD answered him with fire from heaven upon the altar of burnt offering. David built an altar to the LORD there and sacrificed burnt offerings and fellowship offerings. He called on the LORD, and the LORD answered him with fire from heaven on the altar of burnt offering.
27 And YHWH commanded the angel, and he returned his sword to its sheath. Then the LORD commanded the angel, and he put his sword back into its sheath. Then the LORD spoke to the angel, and he put his sword back into its sheath.
28 At that time David saw that YHWH had answered him on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, and he sacrificed there. At that time, when David saw that the LORD had answered him at the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, he sacrificed there. At that time, when David saw that the LORD had answered him on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite, he offered sacrifices there.
