Contextual Overview

18 Then the angel of the Lord told Gad to say to David, "Go up and build an altar to the Lord on the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite." 19 So David went up when he heard what Gad said in the name of the Lord. 20 Now Ornan was beating the grain. He turned and saw the angel. And his four sons hid themselves. 21 Ornan looked and saw David coming. So he went out from the grain-floor and put his face to the ground showing respect to David. 22 David said to him, "Give me this part of the grain-floor, that I may build an altar on it to the Lord. Give it to me for the full price. Then the disease will be turned away from the people." 23 Ornan said to David, "Take it. Let my lord the king do what is good in his eyes. See, I will give the bulls for burnt gifts. I will give the objects made of wood used for beating grain for the fire-wood. And I will give the grain for the grain gift. I will give it all." 24 But King David said to Ornan, "No, I will buy it for the full price. I will not take what is yours for the Lord. And I will not give a burnt gift for which I do not pay." 25 So David gave Ornan 600 pieces of gold by weight for the place. 26 Then David built an altar there to the Lord. He gave burnt gifts and peace gifts, and he called to the Lord. The Lord answered him with fire from heaven on the altar of burnt gifts. 27 Then the Lord told the angel to return his sword to its holder.
