1 Chronicles 21:20-22
1599 Geneva Bible
20 And Ornan turned about and saw the Angel, and his four sons that were with him, [a]hid themselves, and Ornan threshed wheat.
21 And as David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshing floor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.
22 And David said to Ornan, Give me the place of thy threshing floor, that I may build an [b]altar therein unto the Lord: give it me for sufficient money, that the plague may be stayed from the people.
