21 Y volviéndose Ornán vió al ángel; por lo que se escondieron cuatro hijos suyos que con él estaban. Y Ornán trillaba el trigo.

22 Y viniendo David á Ornán, miró éste, y vió á David: y saliendo de la era, postróse en tierra á David.

23 Entonces dijo David á Ornán: Dame [este] lugar de la era, en que edifique un altar á Jehová, y dámelo por [su] cabal precio, para que cese la plaga del pueblo.
