6. When they came to the threshing floor of Nacon, Uzzah reached for God’s ark, and took hold of it; for the cattle stumbled.
7. the Lord’s anger burnt against Uzzah; and God struck him there for his error; and he died there by God’s ark.
8. David was displeased, because the Lord had broken out against Uzzah; and he called that place Perez Uzzah, to this day.
9. David was afraid of the Lord that day; and he said, “How could the Lord’s ark come to me?”
10. So David would not move the Lord’s ark to be with him in David’s city; but David carried it aside into Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house.
11. the Lord’s ark remained in Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house three months; and the Lord blessed Obed-Edom and all his house.
12. King David was told, “The Lord has blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that belongs to him, because of God’s ark.”So David went and brought up God’s ark from the house of Obed-Edom into David’s city with joy.
