1 Chronicles 13:9-14 ▼

9 Then they came to the threshing floor of Chidon. And Uzza reached out with his hand to take hold of the ark, because the oxen nearly upset it.

10 And the anger of Yahweh burned against Uzza, and He struck him down because he reached out with his hand to the ark; and he died there before God.

11 And David became angry because of Yahweh’s breaking out against Uzza; and that place is called Perez-uzza to this day.

12 So David was afraid of God that day, saying, “How can I bring the ark of God back to me?”

13 And David did not move the ark with him to the city of David, but took it aside to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.

14 Thus the ark of God remained with the household of Obed-edom in his house three months; and Yahweh blessed the household of Obed-edom with all that he had.
