於是迦得來見大衛，對他說：「你願意國中有七年的饑荒呢？是在你敵人面前逃跑，被追趕三個月呢？是在你國中有三日的瘟疫呢？現在你要揣摩思想，我好回覆那差我來的。」

David spoke to Yahweh when he saw the angel who struck the people, and said, “Behold, I have sinned, and I have done perversely; but these sheep, what have they done? Please let your hand be against me, and against my father’s house.”

Araunah 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.

Araunah said, “Why has my lord the king come to his servant?” David said, “To buy your threshing floor, to build an altar to Yahweh, that the plague may be stopped from afflicting the people.”
說：「我主我王為何來到僕人這裏呢？」大衛說：「我要買你這禾場，為耶和華築一座壇，使民間的瘟疫止住。」
24:22
ወይቤሎ፡ ኦርናን፡ ለዳዊት፡ ለይንሣእ፡ እግዚእየ፡ ንጉሥ፡ ዘአደሞ፡ በቅድመ፡ አዕይንቲሁ፡ ወናሁ፡ አልህምትኒ፡ ለመሥዋዕት፡ ወመንኰራኵርኒ፡ ወዕፀዊሆሙ፡ ለአልህምት።
Araunah 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.
亞勞拿對大衛說：「我主我王，你喜悅用甚麼，就拿去獻祭。看哪，這裏有牛可以作燔祭，有打糧的器具和套牛的軛可以當柴燒。
24:23
ወወሀቦ፡ ኵሎ፡ ኦርናን፡ ለዳዊት፡ ወይቤሎ፡ ኦርናን፡ ለንጉሥ፡ እግዚአብሔር፡ አምላክከ፡ ባረከከ።
All this, O king, does Araunah give to the king.” Araunah said to the king, “May Yahweh your God accept you.”
王啊，這一切，我亞勞拿都奉給你」；又對王說：「願耶和華－你的上帝悅納你。」
24:24
ወይቤሎ፡ ንጉሥ፡ ለኦርናን፡ አልቦ ፤ በሤጥ፡ ዳእሙ፡ እሣየጥ፡ በኀቤከ፡ ወኢይገብር፡ መሥዋዕተ፡ ለእግዚአብሔር፡ አምላኪየ፡ ዘበከንቱ፡ ወተሣየጠ፡ ዳዊት፡ ውእተ፡ ዐውደ፡ እክል፡ ወአልህምቲሁኒ፡ በብሩር፡ በ፶ሰቅሎን።
The king said to Araunah, “No, but I will most certainly buy it from you for a price. I will not offer burnt offerings to Yahweh my God which cost me nothing.” So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
王對亞勞拿說：「不然。我必要按着價值向你買；我不肯用白得之物作燔祭獻給耶和華－我的上帝。」大衛就用五十舍客勒銀子買了那禾場與牛。
24:25
ወነደቀ፡ ዳዊት፡ በህየ፡ ምሥዋዐ፡ ለእግዚአብሔር፡ ወአዕረገ፡ መሥዋዕተ፡ ሰላም፡ ወወሰከ፡ ሰሎሞን፡ በደኃሪ፡ መዋዕል፡ ዲበ፡ መሥዋዕት፡ እስመ፡ ደቂቅ፡ ውእቱ፡ ይእተ፡ አሚረ፡ ወተሣሀላ፡ እግዚአብሔር፡ ለምድር፡ ወኀደጎሙ፡ ሞት፡ ለእስራኤል።
David built an altar to Yahweh there, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So Yahweh was entreated for the land, and the plague was removed from Israel.
