18
And the angel of Jehovah commanded Gad to say to David, that David should go up and rear an altar to Jehovah in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
19
And David went up at the saying of Gad, which he had spoken in the name of Jehovah.
20
And Ornan turned back and saw the angel; and his four sons with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.
21
And David came to Ornan, and Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshing-floor, and bowed himself to David with [his] face to the ground.
22
And David said to Ornan, Grant me the place of the threshing-floor, that I may build an altar in it to Jehovah: grant it to me for the full money, that the plague may be stayed from the people.
