2 Samuel 24:20-22

New Century Version

²⁰ Araunah looked and saw the king and his servants coming to him. So he went out and bowed facedown on the ground before the king. ²¹ He said, “Why has my master the king come to me?”

David answered, “To buy the threshing floor from you so I can build an altar to the Lord. Then the terrible disease will stop.”

²² Araunah said to David, “My master and king, you may take anything you want for a sacrifice. Here are some oxen for the whole burnt offering and the threshing boards and the yokes for the wood.
