1 Chronicles 21:28-30

The Voice

²⁸ When David saw how the Eternal had answered him on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite by coming to the altar as fire and by stopping the plagues and the destruction of Jerusalem, David offered a sacrifice there instead of at Gibeon. ²⁹ (The congregation tent of the Eternal, which Moses had built in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt offering were in the high place at Gibeon at that time.) ³⁰ But David could not go to Gibeon to commune with God because he still feared that the Eternal’s messenger would slay him.
