2 Samuel 24:12-25

24:12

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)_.

24:13

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.

24:14

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}

24:15

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>_.

24:16

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}

24:17

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>_.

24:18

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}

24:19

And David
<01732>_,

according to the saying
<01697>

of Gad
<01410>_,

went up
<05927> (8799)

as the LORD
<03068>

commanded
<06680> (8765)_.

24:20

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>_.

24:21

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>_.

24:22

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>_.

24:23

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.

24:24

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>_.

24:25

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>_.
