Dixitque ei David: Da mihi locum areæ tuæ, ut ædificem in ea altare Domino: ita ut quantum valet argenti accipias, et cesset plaga a populo.
And David said to him: Give me this place of thy thrashingfloor, that I may build therein an altar to the Lord: but thou shalt take of me as much money as it is worth, that the plague may cease from the people.
Et Davide ad illo dic: da ad me loco de area tuo, ut aedifica in illa altari ad Domino: ita ut quanto vale de argento accipe, et plaga cessa ab populo.
