And David said ,
To buy the threshingfloor of thee ,
to build an altar unto the LORD ,
that the plague may be stayed from the people .
*
Then Araunah saide vnto Dauid ,
Let my lord the King take and offer what seemeth him good in his eyes :
beholde the oxen for the burnt offring ,
and charets ,
and the instruments of the oxen for wood .

And the king said unto Araunah ,
Nay ;
