2 Samuel 6:2-17

2And DavidH1732 aroseH6965, and wentH5927 with allH3605 the peopleH5971 that were with him, from Baale Judah, to bringH5927 upH5927 from thence the arkH727 of GodH430, whichH834 is calledH7121 by the NameH8034, evenH853 the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 that sitteth uponH5921 the cherubimH3742.

3And they setH834 the arkH727 of GodH430 uponH413 a newH2319 cartH5699, and broughtH5375 it outH413 of the houseH1004 of AbinadabH41 that was in the hillH1389: and UzzahH5798 and AhioH283, the sonsH1121 of AbinadabH41, drave the newH2319 cartH5699.

4And they broughtH1980 it outH6440 of the houseH1004 of AbinadabH41, whichH834 was in the hillH1389, with the arkH727 of GodH430: and AhioH283 wentH1980 beforeH6440 the arkH727.

5And DavidH1732 and allH3605 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 playedH7832 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 with allH3605 manner of instruments madeH3605 of firH1265 woodH6086, and with harpsH3658, and with psalteries, and with timbrelsH8596, and with castanetsH4517, and with cymbalsH6767.

6And when they cameH935 to the threshing-floor of Nacon, UzzahH5798 putH7971 forthH7971 his hand to the arkH727 of GodH430, and tookH270 holdH270 of it; for the oxenH1241 stumbledH8058.

7And the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was kindledH2734 againstH5921 UzzahH5798; and GodH430 smoteH5221 him there for his error; and there he diedH4191 by the arkH727 of GodH430.

8And DavidH1732 was displeased, becauseH5921 the LORDH3068 had brokenH6555 forthH6555 uponH5921 UzzahH5798: and he calledH7121 that placeH4725 Perez-uzzahH6560, unto this dayH3117.

9And DavidH1732 was afraidH3372 of the LORDH3068 that dayH3117; and he saidH559, HowH349 shall the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 comeH935 unto meH413?

10SoH3808 DavidH1732 would notH3808 removeH5493 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 unto him intoH413 the cityH5892 of DavidH1732; but DavidH1732 carriedH5921 it asideH5493 intoH413 the houseH1004 of Obed-edomH5654 the GittiteH1663.

11And the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 remainedH3427 in the houseH1004 of Obed-edomH5654 the GittiteH1663 threeH7969 monthsH2320: and the LORDH3068 blessedH1288 Obed-edomH5654, and allH3605 his houseH1004.

12And it was toldH5046 kingH4428 DavidH1732, sayingH559, The LORDH3068 hath blessedH1288 the houseH1004 of Obed-edomH5654, and allH3605 that pertaineth to him, becauseH834 of the arkH727 of GodH430. And DavidH1732 wentH5927 and broughtH5927 upH5927 the arkH727 of GodH430 from the houseH1004 of Obed-edomH5654 intoH5654 the cityH5892 of DavidH1732 with joyH8057.

13And it was soH1961, that when they that bare the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 had goneH6805 sixH8337 pacesH6806, he sacrificedH2076 an oxH7794 and a fatlingH4806.

14And DavidH1732 danced beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 with allH3605 his might; and DavidH1732 was girdedH2296 with a linenH906 ephodH646.

15SoH5927 DavidH1732 and allH3605 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 broughtH5927 upH5927 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 with shoutingH8643, and with the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782.

16And it was soH1961, as the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 cameH935 intoH935 the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, that MichalH4324 the daughterH1323 of SaulH7586 lookedH7200 outH8259 at the windowH2474, and sawH7200 kingH4428 DavidH1732 leapingH6339 and dancingH3769 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068; and sheH3820 despisedH959 him in herH7200 heartH3820.

17And they broughtH935 in the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, and setH935 it in itsH853 placeH4725, in the midstH8432 of the tentH168 that DavidH1732 had pitchedH5186 for it: and DavidH1732 offeredH5927 burntH5930 offeringsH8002 and peaceH8002 offeringsH8002 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.
