Context of 1 Chronicles 13:11

9When they arrived at the threshing floor of Kidon, Uzzah reached out his hand to take hold of the ark, because the oxen stumbled. 10The Lord was so furious with Uzzah, he killed him, because he reached out his hand and touched the ark. He died right there before God. David was angry because the Lord attacked Uzzah; so he called that place Perez Uzzah, which remains its name to this very day. 12David was afraid of God that day and said, “How will I ever be able to bring the ark of God up here?” 13So David did not move the ark to the City of David; he left it in the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.

• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 6-14Verses 6-14 Let the sin of Uzza warn all to take heed of presumption, rashness, and irreverence, in dealing with holy things; and let none think that a good design will justify a bad action.
