Holman Christian Standard Bible
22 Araunah said to David, “My lord the king may take whatever he wants[a] and offer it. Here are the oxen for a burnt offering and the threshing sledges and ox yokes for the wood.(A) 23 My king, Araunah gives everything here to the king.” Then he said to the king, “May the Lord your God accept you.”
24 The king answered Araunah, “No, I insist on buying it from you for a price, for I will not offer to the Lord my God burnt offerings that cost me nothing.” David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for 20 ounces[b] of silver.
