18
Then the angel of the Lord told Gad to tell David that he should build an altar to the Lord on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
19
So David did what Gad told him to do, in the name of the Lord.
20
Araunah was separating the wheat from the straw. When he turned around, he saw the angel. Araunah's four sons who were with him hid.
21
David came to Araunah, and when Araunah saw him, he left the threshing floor and bowed facedown on the ground before David.
22
David said to him, "Sell me your threshing floor so I can build an altar to the Lord here. Then the terrible disease will stop. Sell it to me for the full price."
