1 Chronicles 21:23-25

Evangelical Heritage Version

²³ Ornan said to David, “Take it for yourself. My lord the king may do what is good in his eyes. Look here. I have given the oxen for burnt offerings, the threshing sledges for the wood, and the wheat for the grain offering. I have given everything.”

²⁴ David said to Ornan, “No. I am determined to buy it for the full price, because I will not take what belongs to you for the Lord and for burnt offerings without paying for it.”

²⁵ So David weighed out six hundred shekels^[a] of gold to Ornan for the site.
