See, I give the oxen for the burnt offerings, the threshing sledges for the wood, and the wheat for the grain offering-I give it all." King David answered Ornan, "No, I insist on paying the full price, for I will not take for the Lord what belongs to you or offer burnt offerings that cost [me] nothing." So David gave Ornan 15 pounds of gold for the plot.

Choose one of them, and I will do it to you.' " read more.

Now, think it over and decide what answer I should take back to the One who sent me." David answered Gad, "I have great anxiety. Please, let us fall into the Lord's hands because His mercies are great, but don't let me fall into human hands."

Now decide what answer I should take back to the One who sent me." David answered Gad, "I have great anxiety. Please, let me fall into the Lord's hands because His mercies are very great, but don't let me fall into human hands." So the Lord sent a plague on Israel, and 70,000 Israelite men died.
