2 Samuel 6:2-12

2And DavidH1732 aroseH6965, and wentH3212 with all the peopleH5971 that were with him from Baale of JudahH1184, to bring upH5927 from thence the arkH727 of GodH430, whose nameH8034 is calledH7121 by the nameH8034 of YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635 that dwellethH3427 between the cherubimsH3742.12 3And they setH7392 the arkH727 of GodH430 upon a newH2319 cartH5699, and broughtH5375 it out of the houseH1004 of AbinadabH41 that was in GibeahH1390: and UzzahH5798 and AhioH283, the sonsH1121 of AbinadabH41, draveH5090 the newH2319 cartH5699.34 4And they broughtH5375 it out of the houseH1004 of AbinadabH41 which was at GibeahH1390, accompanyingH5973 the arkH727 of GodH430: and AhioH283 wentH1980 beforeH6440 the arkH727.5 5And DavidH1732 and all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 playedH7832 beforeH6440 YhwhH3068 on all manner of instruments made of firH1265 woodH6086, even on harpsH3658, and on psalteriesH5035, and on timbrelsH8596, and on cornetsH4517, and on cymbalsH6767.

6And when they cameH935 to Nachon’sH5225 threshingfloorH1637, UzzahH5798 put forthH7971 his hand to the arkH727 of GodH430, and took holdH270 of it; for the oxenH1241 shookH8058 it.67 7And the angerH639 of YhwhH3068 was kindledH2734 against UzzahH5798; and GodH430 smoteH5221 him there for his errorH7944; and there he diedH4191 by the arkH727 of GodH430.8 8And DavidH1732 was displeasedH2734, because YhwhH3068 had madeH6555 a breachH6556 upon UzzahH5798: and he calledH7121 the name of the placeH4725 Perez–uzzahH6560 to this dayH3117.910 9And DavidH1732 was afraidH3372 of YhwhH3068 that dayH3117, and saidH559, How shall the arkH727 of YhwhH3068 comeH935 to me? 10So DavidH1732 wouldH14 not removeH5493 the arkH727 of YhwhH3068 unto him into the cityH5892 of DavidH1732: but DavidH1732 carried it asideH5186 into the houseH1004 of Obed–edomH5654 the GittiteH1663. 11And the arkH727 of YhwhH3068 continuedH3427 in the houseH1004 of Obed–edomH5654 the GittiteH1663 threeH7969 monthsH2320: And YhwhH3068 blessedH1288 Obed–edomH5654, and all his householdH1004.

12And it was toldH5046 kingH4428 DavidH1732, sayingH559, YhwhH3068 hath blessedH1288 the houseH1004 of Obed–edomH5654, and all that pertaineth unto him, because of the arkH727 of GodH430. So DavidH1732 wentH3212 and brought upH5927 the arkH727 of GodH430 from the houseH1004 of Obed–edomH5654 into the cityH5892 of DavidH1732 with gladnessH8057.
