2 Samuel 24:16

Context
24:16 When the angel 1  extended his hand to destroy Jerusalem, the Lord relented from his judgment. 2  He told the angel who was killing the people, “That’s enough! Stop now!” 3  (Now the Lord’s angel was near the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.)

2 Samuel 24:21

Context
24:21 Araunah said, “Why has my lord the king come to his servant?” David replied, “To buy from you the threshing floor so I can build an altar for the Lord, so that the plague may be removed from the people.”

2 Samuel 24:24

Context
24:24 But the king said to Araunah, “No, I insist on buying it from you! I will not offer to the Lord my God burnt sacrifices that cost me nothing.”

So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for fifty pieces of silver. 4
