1 Chronicles 21:28-22:1

New English Translation

²⁸ At that time, when David saw that the Lord responded to him at the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, he sacrificed there. ²⁹ Now the Lord’s tabernacle (which Moses had made in the wilderness) and the altar for burnt sacrifices were at that time at the worship center^[a] in Gibeon. ³⁰ But David could not go before it to seek God’s will, for he was afraid of the sword of the angel of the Lord. 22 ¹ David then said, “This is the place where the temple of the Lord God will be, along with the altar for burnt sacrifices for Israel.”
