2 Samuel 24:23

2Sa 24:23 All these [things] did Araunah, [as] a king, give unto the king. And Araunah said unto the king, The LORD thy God accept thee.

Ver. 23. All these things did Araunah as a king give unto the king. ] He had a princely spirit, though but a subject’s purse: Regum aequabat opes animis, as Virgil saith a of that old Tarentine. Some b think that he had been a king of the Jebusites, and was now in great esteem with David, as being a proselyte, and his friend.
