22 Araunah said to David, |Take it, Your Majesty, and offer whatever you think is right. There are oxen for the burnt offering, and there are threshers and oxen yokes for firewood.| 23 All this Araunah gave to the king and said, |May the LORD your God accept you.| 24 |No!| the king said to Araunah. |I must buy it from you at a [fair] price. I won't offer the LORD my God burnt sacrifices that cost me nothing.| So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for 11/4 pounds of silver. 2 Samuel 24:22-24, God's Word Translation.
