2 Samuel 24:21-23
1599 Geneva Bible
21 And [a]Araunah said, Wherefore is my lord the king come to his servant? Then David answered, to buy the threshing floor of thee for to build an altar unto the Lord, that the plague may cease from the people.
22 Then Araunah said unto David, Let my lord the King take and offer what seemeth him good in his eyes: behold the oxen for the burnt offering, and chariots, and the instruments of the oxen for wood.
23 (All these things did Araunah [b]as a king give unto the king: and Araunah said unto the king, The Lord thy God be favorable unto thee.)
