Lord and offered burnt sacrifices and peace offerings.

Lord, and the
Lord 2 responded by sending fire from the sky and consuming the burnt sacrifice on the altar.

Lord ordered the messenger

21:28 At that time, when David saw that the Lord responded to him at the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, he sacrificed there.
