2 Samuel 6:5-14

5David and the whole house of Israel were dancing before the Lord with all kinds of fir wood instruments, lyres, harps, tambourines, sistrums, and cymbals.

6When they came to Nacon’s threshing floor, Uzzah reached out to the ark of God and took hold of it because the oxen had stumbled.

7Then the Lord’s anger burned against Uzzah, and God struck him dead on the spot for his irreverence, and he died there next to the ark of God.

8David was angry because of the Lord’s outburst against Uzzah, so he named that place Outburst Against Uzzah, as it is today.

9David feared the Lord that day and said, “How can the ark of the Lord ever come to me?”

10So he was not willing to bring the ark of the Lord to the city of David; instead, he diverted it to the house of Obed-edom of Gath.

11The ark of the Lord remained in his house three months, and the Lord blessed Obed-edom and his whole family.

12It was reported to King David, “The Lord has blessed Obed-edom’s family and all that belongs to him because of the ark of God.” So David went and had the ark of God brought up from Obed-edom’s house to the city of David with rejoicing.

13When those carrying the ark of the Lord advanced six steps, he sacrificed an ox and a fattened calf.

14David was dancing with all his might before the Lord wearing a linen ephod.
