2 Samuel 6:5-14
5Meanwhile, DavidH1732 and allH3605 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 1were celebratingH7832 beforeH6440 the LordH3068 2with allH3605 kinds of instruments made of juniperH1265 woodH6086, and with 3lyresH3658, harpsH5035, tambourinesH8596, castanetsH4517, and cymbalsH6767.
6But when they cameH935 to the 4threshingH1637 floorH1637 of NaconH5225, UzzahH5798 5reachedH7971 outH7971 towardH413 the arkH727 of GodH430 and tookH270 holdH270 of it, becauseH3588 the oxenH1241 nearly overturnedH8058 it. 7And the angerH639 of the LordH3068 burnedH2734 against UzzahH5798, and 6GodH430 struckH5221 him down thereH8033 for 7his irreverenceH7944; and he diedH4191 thereH8033 by the arkH727 of GodH430. 8Then DavidH1732 becameH2734 angryH2734 becauseH5921H834 8of the Lord’sH3068 outburstH6555H6556 against UzzahH5798; and that placeH4725 has been calledH7121 9Perez-uzzahH6560 to thisH2088 dayH3117. 9So 10DavidH1732 wasH3372 afraidH3372 of the LordH3068 that dayH3117; and he saidH559, “HowH349 can the arkH727 of the LordH3068 comeH935 to me?” 10And DavidH1732 was unwillingH3808H14 to moveH5493 the arkH727 of the LordH3068 into the cityH5892 of DavidH1732 with him; but DavidH1732 tookH5186 it asideH5186 to the houseH1004 of 11Obed-edomH5654, the GittiteH1663. 11The arkH727 of the LordH3068 remainedH3427 in the houseH1004 of Obed-edomH5654 the GittiteH1663 for threeH7969 monthsH2320, and the LordH3068 12blessedH1288 Obed-edomH5654 and allH3605 his householdH1004.
12Now it was reportedH5046 to KingH4428 DavidH1732, sayingH559, “The LordH3068 has blessedH1288 the houseH1004 of Obed-edomH5654 and allH3605 that belongs to him, on accountH5668 of the arkH727 of GodH430.” 13So DavidH1732 wentH1980 and broughtH5927 the arkH727 of GodH430 upH5927 from the houseH1004 of Obed-edomH5654 to 14the cityH5892 of DavidH1732 with joyH8057. 13And so it was, that 15whenH3588 16those carryingH5375 the arkH727 of the LordH3068 marchedH6805 sixH8337 pacesH6806, he sacrificedH2076 an 17oxH7794 and a fattenedH4806 steerH4806. 14And 18DavidH1732 was dancingH3769 beforeH6440 the LordH3068 with allH3605 his strengthH5797, and DavidH1732 was 19wearingH2296 a linenH906 ephodH646.
