2 Samuel 24:21-23

EasyEnglish Bible

²¹ Araunah said, ‘My lord the king, why have you come here to me, your servant?’

David replied, ‘I have come to buy your threshing floor from you. I want to build an altar here to worship the Lord. Then he will stop this bad disease from killing the people.’

²² Araunah said to David, ‘My lord the king, take anything that you would like to offer to the Lord. You can take these oxen to offer as sacrifices. You can use the wood from these tools and yokes to make a fire. ²³ I will give all these things to you sir, my lord the king.’

Araunah also said to the king, ‘I pray that the Lord your God will accept your offerings.’
