2 Samuel 24:20-24

Araunah looked and saw the king and his servants coming to him. So he went out and bowed facedown on the ground before the king. He said, “Why has my master the king come to me?” David answered, “To buy the threshing floor from you so I can build an altar to the LORD. Then the terrible disease will stop.” Araunah said to David, “My master and king, you may take anything you want for a sacrifice. Here are some oxen for the whole burnt offering and the threshing boards and the yokes for the wood. My king, I give everything to you.” Araunah also said to the king, “May the LORD your God be pleased with you.” But the king answered Araunah, “No, I will pay you for the land. I won’t offer to the LORD my God burnt offerings that cost me nothing.” So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for one and one-fourth pounds of silver.
