6 And when they came to aNachon’s threshing floor, Uzzah put out his bhand to the ark of God and took hold of it, for the oxen stumbled.
7 Then the anger of the Lord was aroused against Uzzah, and God struck him there for his1 error; and he died there by the ark of God.
8 And David became angry because of the Lord’s outbreak against Uzzah; and he called the name of the place1 Perez Uzzah to this day.
10 So David would not move the ark of the Lord with him into the aCity of David; but David took it aside into the house of Obed-Edom the bGittite.
