1 Chronicles 21:22

21:22 David said to Ornan, “Sell me the threshing floor ⁴  so I can build ⁵  on it an altar for the Lord – I’ll pay top price ⁶  – so that the plague may be removed ⁷  from the people.”

[17:9]  ¹ tn Heb “plant.”

[17:9]  ² tn Heb “shaken.”

[17:9]  ³ tn Heb “and sons of violence will no longer consume them as in the beginning.”

[21:22]  ¹ tn Heb “the place of the threshing floor.”

[21:22]  ² tn Following the imperative, the prefixed verbal form with vav (ו) conjunctive here indicates the immediate purpose/result: “so I can build.”

[21:22]  ³ tn Heb “For full silver sell to me.”

[21:22]  ⁴ tn Following the imperative and first person prefixed verbal form with vav (ו) conjunctive, this third person prefixed verbal form with vav conjunctive introduces the ultimate purpose/result: “so the plague may be removed.” Another option is subordinate this form to the preceding imperative, but the latter may be taken as a parenthetical expansion of the initial request.
