1 Chronicles 21:24-26

GOD’S WORD Translation

²⁴ “No,” King David told Ornan, “I insist on buying it for the full price. I won’t take what is yours for the Lord and offer burnt sacrifices that cost me nothing.” ²⁵ So David gave Ornan 15 pounds of gold for that place.

²⁶ David built an altar for the Lord there and sacrificed burnt offerings and fellowship offerings. He called on the Lord, and the Lord answered him by ⌞sending⌟ fire from heaven on the altar for burnt offerings.
