The Threshing-floor of Araunah — 2 Samuel 24:18–21

  
    And Gad came that day to David, and said unto him,
Go up, rear an altar unto Jehovah in the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
And David went up according to the saying of Gad, as Jehovah commanded.
2SAM 24:18–19

    And Araunah looked forth, and saw the king and his servants coming on toward him: and Araunah went out, and bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.
And Araunah said,
Wherefore is my lord the king come to his servant?
And David said,
To buy the threshing-floor of thee, to build an altar unto Jehovah, that the plague may be stayed from the people.
