પછી અરાવ્નાહે કહ્યું, “મારો માલિક રાજા પોતાના ચાકરની પાસે કેમ આવ્યો છે?” દાઉદે કહ્યું, લોકોમાંથી મરકી બંધ થાય માટે ઈશ્વરને સારુ વેદી બાંધવા માટે તારી પાસેથી આ ખળી વેચાતી લેવાને હું આવ્યો છું.
हिन्दी2 शमूएल २४:२१
और अरौना ने कहा, “मेरा प्रभु राजा अपने दास के पास क्यों पधारा है?” दाऊद ने कहा, “तुझ से यह खलिहान मोल लेने आया हूँ, कि यहोवा की एक वेदी बनवाऊँ, इसलिए कि यह महामारी प्रजा पर से दूर की जाए।”

In context

19David went up according to the saying of Gad, as the LORD commanded.

20Araunah looked out, and saw the king and his servants coming on toward him. Then Araunah went out and bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.

21Araunah said, “Why has my lord the king come to his servant?” David said, “To buy your threshing floor, to build an altar to the LORD, that the plague may be stopped from afflicting the people.”

22Araunah said to David, “Let my lord the king take and offer up what seems good to him. Behold, the cattle for the burnt offering, and the threshing sledges and the yokes of the oxen for the wood.

23All this, O king, does Araunah give to the king.” Araunah said to the king, “May the LORD your God accept you.”
