Context of 1 Chronicles 13:10
8And David and all Israel played before God with all their might, even with songs, and with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with cymbals, and with trumpets. 9And when they came unto the threshing-floor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark; for the oxen stumbled. And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Uzza, and he smote him, because he put forth his hand to the ark; and there he died before God. 11And David was displeased, because Jehovah had broken forth upon Uzza: and he called that place Perez-uzza, unto this day. 12And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God home to me?
