Contextual Overview
18 And, the messenger of Yahweh, commanded Gad, to say unto David, - that David should go up, to rear an altar unto Yahweh, in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite. 19 So David went up, according to the word of Gad, which he spake in the name of Yahweh. 20 And Ornan turned, and saw the messenger, but, his four sons with him, were hiding themselves, - now, Ornan, had been threshing wheat. 21 Then came David unto Ornan, - and Ornan looked, and saw David, and went forth out of the threshing-floor, and bowed himself unto David, with his face to the ground. 22 And David said unto Ornan, Grant me the place of the threshing-floor, that I may build thereon an altar, unto Yahweh, - for silver in full, shalt thou grant it me, that the plague may be stayed from off the people. 23 And Ornan said unto David, Take it to thee, and let my lord the king do what is good in his own eyes, - see! I have given the oxen for ascending-sacrifices, and, the threshing implements for wood, and the wheat for a meal-offering, - the whole, have I given. 24 Then said King David to Ornan, Nay! but I will, surely buy, it for silver in full, - for I will not take that which is thine for Yahweh, nor offer an ascending-sacrifice that hath cost me nothing. 25 So David gave to Ornan, for the place, - shekels of gold, by weight, six hundred. 26 And David built there an altar unto Yahweh, and caused to go up ascending-sacrifices, and peace-offerings, - and called unto Yahweh, and he responded to him, by fire, out of the heavens, upon the altar of ascending-sacrifice. 27 And Yahweh gave word to tile messenger, and he put back his sword into its sheath.
