New Testament

1 Chronicles 21:27-30 American Standard Version (ASV)

27. And Jehovah commanded the angel; and he put up his sword again into the sheath thereof.

28. At that time, when David saw that Jehovah had answered him in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.

29. For the tabernacle of Jehovah, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt-offering, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.

30. But David could not go before it to inquire of God; for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of Jehovah.
