Context of 1 Chronicles 13:5

So David gathered all Israel together, from Shihor of Egypt even to the entrance of Hemath, to bring the ark of God from Kirjathjearim. 6And David went up, and all Israel, to Baalah, that is, to Kirjathjearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God the LORD, that dwelleth between the cherubim, whose name is called on it . 7And they carried the ark of God in a new cart out of the house of Abinadab: and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.
