2 Samuel 6:6-11
6When they cameH935 toH5704 the threshing floorH1637 of NaconH5225,1 UzzahH5798 reached outH7971 and took holdH270 of the arkH727 of GodH430, becauseH3588 the oxenH1241 had stumbledH8058. 7And the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 burnedH2734 against UzzahH5798, and GodH430 struck him downH5221 on the spotH8033 forH5921 his irreverenceH7944,2 and he diedH4191 thereH8033 besideH5973 the arkH727 of GodH430.
8Then DavidH1732 became angryH2734 becauseH5921 the LORDH3068 had burst forthH6555H6556 against UzzahH5798. So he namedH7121 thatH1931 placeH4725 Perez-uzzahH6560,3 as it is called toH5704 thisH2088 dayH3117.
9ThatH1931 dayH3117 DavidH1732 fearedH3372 the LORDH3068 and askedH559, “HowH349 can the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 ever comeH935 to meH413?” 10So heH1732 was unwillingH3808H14 to moveH5493H413 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 toH5921 the CityH5892 of DavidH1732; instead, he tookH1732 it asideH5186 to the houseH1004 of Obed-edomH5654 the GittiteH1663. 11Thus the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 remainedH3427 in the houseH1004 of Obed-edomH5654 the GittiteH1663 for threeH7969 monthsH2320, and the LORDH3068 blessedH1288 him and allH3605 his householdH1004.
