24 Neuertheles the kynge sayde vnto Arnan: Not so, but for ye full money wyl I bye it: for that which is thine wyl not I take for the LORDE, and offre a burntofferynge for naughte.

25 So Dauid gaue Arnan for ye rowme, sixe hundreth Sycles of golde in weight.

26 And there buylded Dauid an altare vnto ye LORDE, & offred burntofferynges & slaynofferynges. And whan he called vpo the LORDE, he herde him thorow the fyre from heaue vpon ye altare of the burntofferynge.

27 And ye LORDE sayde vnto the angell, that he shulde put his swerde in to his sheeth.

28 At the same tyme wha Dauid sawe, that the LORDE had herde him vpon the corne floore of Arnan ye Iebusite, he dyd sacrifice there.

29 For ye habitacion of ye LORDE which Moses had made in the wyldernes, and the altare of burntofferynges, was at that tyme in the hye place at Gibeon.

30 But Dauid coulde not go thither to seke God before it, for he feared the swerde of the LORDES angell.
