1 Chronicles 21:28-22:1

Expanded Bible

²⁸ When David saw that the Lord had answered him on the threshing floor of ·Araunah [or Ornan; or Aravna; v. 18], he offered sacrifices there. ²⁹ The ·Holy Tent [Tabernacle] that Moses made while the Israelites were in the ·desert [wilderness] and the altar of burnt offerings [Lev. 1:1–17] were in Gibeon at the ·place of worship [^Lhigh place]. ³⁰ But David could not go ·to the Holy Tent to speak with [before it to inquire of] God, because he was ·afraid [terrified] of the sword of the angel of the Lord.

22 David said, “The ·Temple [^Lhouse] of the Lord God and the altar for Israel’s burnt offerings [Lev. 1:1–17] will be here.”
