15 God also sent an angel to destroy Jerusalem, but as he was about to do so, the Lord looked and withdrew[a] the calamity by saying to the destroying angel, “Enough! Stop what you’re doing!”[b]
So the angel of the Lord remained standing near the threshing floor that belonged to Ornan[c] the Jebusite.[d]
