13:021:023 And Ornan said unto David, Take it to thee, and let my lord
           the king do that which is good in his eyes:  lo, I give thee
           the oxen also for burnt offerings, and the threshing
           instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meat offering; I
           give it all.

13:021:024 And king David said to Ornan, Nay; but I will verily buy it
           for the full price:  for I will not take that which is thine
           for the lord, nor offer burnt offerings without cost.

13:021:025 So David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of
           gold by weight.

13:021:026 And David built there an altar unto the lord, and offered
           burnt offerings and peace offerings, and called upon the lord;
           and he answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of
           burnt offering.

13:021:027 And the lord commanded the angel; and he put up his sword
           again into the sheath thereof.

13:021:028 At that time when David saw that the lord had answered him in
           the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed
           there.

13:021:029 For the tabernacle of the lord, which Moses made in the
           wilderness, and the altar of the burnt offering, were at that
           season in the high place at Gibeon.

13:021:030 But David could not go before it to enquire of God:  for he was
           afraid because of the sword of the angel of the lord.

13:022:001 Then David said, This is the house of the lord God, and this
           is the altar of the burnt offering for Israel.

13:022:002 And David commanded to gather together the strangers that were
           in the land of Israel; and he set masons to hew wrought stones
           to build the house of God.

13:022:003 And David prepared iron in abundance for the nails for the
           doors of the gates, and for the joinings; and brass in
           abundance without weight;

13:022:004 Also cedar trees in abundance:  for the Zidonians and they of
           Tyre brought much cedar wood to David.

13:022:005 And David said, Solomon my son is young and tender, and the
           house that is to be builded for the lord must be exceeding
           magnifical, of fame and of glory throughout all countries:  I
           will therefore now make preparation for it.  So David prepared
           abundantly before his death.

13:022:006 Then he called for Solomon his son, and charged him to build
           an house for the lord God of Israel.

13:022:007 And David said to Solomon, My son, as for me, it was in my
           mind to build an house unto the name of the lord my God:
