2 Samuel 24:10-25

And David's
<01732>
heart
<03820>
smote
<05221> (8686)
him after
<0310>
that he had numbered
<05608> (8804)
the people
<05971>_.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
I have sinned
<02398> (8804)
greatly
<03966>
in that I have done
<06213> (8804)_:
and now, I beseech thee, O LORD
<03068>_,
take away
<05674> (8685)
the iniquity
<05771>
of thy servant
<05650>_;
for I have done very
<03966>
foolishly
<05528> (8738)_.
For when David
<01732>
was up
<06965> (8799)
in the morning
<01242>_,
the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came unto the prophet
<05030>
Gad
<01410>_,
David's
<01732>
seer
<02374>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Go
<01980> (8800)
and say
<0559> (8804)
unto David
<01732>_,
Thus saith
<01696> (8765)
the LORD
<03068>_,
I offer
<05190> (8802)
thee three
<07969>
[things]; choose
<0977> (8798)
thee one
<0259>
of them, that I may [do it] unto thee
<06213> (8799)_.
So Gad
<01410>
came
<0935> (8799)
to David
<01732>_,
and told
<05046> (8686)
him, and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Shall seven
<07651>
years
<08141>
of famine
<07458>
come
<0935> (8799)
unto thee in thy land
<0776>_?
or wilt thou flee
<05127> (8800)
three
<07969>
months
<02320>
before
<06440>
thine enemies
<06862>_,
while they pursue
<07291> (8802)
thee? or that there be three
<07969>
days
<03117>_'
pestilence
<01698>
in thy land
<0776>_?
now advise
<03045> (8798)_,
and see
<07200> (8798)
what answer
<01697>
I shall return
<07725> (8686)
to him that sent
<07971> (8802)
me.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Gad
<01410>_,
I am in a great
<03966>
strait
<06887> (8804)_:
let us fall
<05307> (8799)
now into the hand
<03027>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
for his mercies
<07356>
[are] great
<07227>_:
and let me not fall
<05307> (8799)
into the hand
<03027>
of man
<0120>_.
{are great: or, are many}
So the LORD
<03068>
sent
<05414> (8799)
a pestilence
<01698>
upon Israel
<03478>
from the morning
<01242>
even to the time
<06256>
appointed
<04150>_:
and there died
<04191> (8799)
of the people
<05971>
from Dan
<01835>
even to Beersheba
<0884>
seventy
<07657>
thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>_.
And when the angel
<04397>
stretched out
<07971> (8799)
his hand
<03027>
upon Jerusalem
<03389>
to destroy
<07843> (8763)
it, the LORD
<03068>
repented
<05162> (8735)
him of the evil
<07451>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
to the angel
<04397>
that destroyed
<07843> (8688)
the people
<05971>_,
It is enough
<07227>_:
stay
<07503> (8685)
now thine hand
<03027>_.
And the angel
<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>
was by the threshingplace
<01637>
of Araunah
<0728>
the Jebusite
<02983>_.
{Araunah: also called, Ornan}
And David
<01732>
spake
<0559> (8799)
unto the LORD
<03068>
when he saw
<07200> (8800)
the angel
<04397>
that smote
<05221> (8688)
the people
<05971>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Lo, I have sinned
<02398> (8804)_,
and I have done wickedly
<05753> (8689)_:
but these sheep
<06629>_,
what have they done
<06213> (8804)_?
let thine hand
<03027>_,
I pray thee, be against me, and against my father's
<01>
house
<01004>_.
And Gad
<01410>
came
<0935> (8799)
that day
<03117>
to David
<01732>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Go up
<05927> (8798)_,
rear
<06965> (8685)
an altar
<04196>
unto the LORD
<03068>
in the threshingfloor
<01637>
of Araunah
<0728>
the Jebusite
<02983>_.
{Araunah: Heb. Araniah}
And David
<01732>_,
according to the saying
<01697>
of Gad
<01410>_,
went up
<05927> (8799)
as the LORD
<03068>
commanded
<06680> (8765)_.
And Araunah
<0728>
looked
<08259> (8686)_,
and saw
<07200> (8799)
the king
<04428>
and his servants
<05650>
coming on
<05674> (8802)
toward him: and Araunah
<0728>
went out
<03318> (8799)_,
and bowed
<07812> (8691)
himself before the king
<04428>
on his face
<0639>
upon the ground
<0776>_.
And Araunah
<0728>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Wherefore is my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
come
<0935> (8804)
to his servant
<05650>_?
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
To buy
<07069> (8800)
the threshingfloor
<01637>
of thee, to build
<01129> (8800)
an altar
<04196>
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
that the plague
<04046>
may be stayed
<06113> (8735)
from the people
<05971>_.
And Araunah
<0728>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto David
<01732>_,
Let my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
take
<03947> (8799)
and offer up
<05927> (8686)
what [seemeth] good
<02896>
unto him
<05869>_:
behold
<07200> (8798)_,
[here be] oxen
<01241>
for burnt sacrifice
<05930>_,
and threshing instruments
<04173>
and [other] instruments
<03627>
of the oxen
<01241>
for wood
<06086>_.
All these [things] did Araunah
<0728>_,
[as] a king
<04428>_,
give
<05414> (8804)
unto the king
<04428>_.
And Araunah
<0728>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>_,
The LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
accept
<07521> (8799)
thee.
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Araunah
<0728>_,
Nay; but I will surely
<07069> (8800)
buy
<07069> (8799)
[it] of thee at a price
<04242>_:
neither will I offer
<05927> (8686)
burnt offerings
<05930>
unto the LORD
<03068>
my God
<0430>
of that which doth cost me nothing
<02600>_.
So David
<01732>
bought
<07069> (8799)
the threshingfloor
<01637>
and the oxen
<01241>
for fifty
<02572>
shekels
<08255>
of silver
<03701>_.
And David
<01732>
built
<01129> (8799)
there an altar
<04196>
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
and offered
<05927> (8686)
burnt offerings
<05930>
and peace offerings
<08002>_.
So the LORD
<03068>
was intreated
<06279> (8735)
for the land
<0776>_,
and the plague
<04046>
was stayed
<06113> (8735)
from Israel
<03478>_.
