2 Samuel 24:20-22

New International Version - UK

²⁰ When Araunah looked and saw the king and his officials coming towards him, he went out and bowed down before the king with his face to the ground.

²¹ Araunah said, ‘Why has my lord the king come to his servant?’

‘To buy your threshing-floor,’ David answered, ‘so that I can build an altar to the Lord, that the plague on the people may be stopped.’

²² Araunah said to David, ‘Let my lord the king take whatever he wishes and offer it up. Here are oxen for the burnt offering, and here are threshing-sledges and ox yokes for the wood.
