1 Chronicles 13:5

3 and let us bring the ark of our God back to us, ^afor we have not inquired at it since the days of Saul.”

4 Then all the assembly said that they would do so, for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.

5 So ^aDavid gathered all Israel together, from ^bShihor in Egypt to as far as the entrance of Hamath, to bring the ark of God ^cfrom Kirjath Jearim.

6 And David and all Israel went up to ^aBaalah, to Kirjath Jearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God the Lord, ^bwho dwells between the cherubim, where His name is proclaimed.

7 So they¹ carried the ark of God ^aon a new cart ^bfrom the house of Abinadab, and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.

8 Then ^aDavid and all Israel played music before God with all their might, with¹ singing, on harps, on stringed instruments, on tambourines, on cymbals, and with trumpets.

9 And when they came to¹ Chidon’s threshing floor, Uzza put out his hand to hold the ark, for the oxen² stumbled.

10 Then the anger of the Lord was aroused against Uzza, and He struck him ^abecause he put his hand to the ark; and he ^bdied there before God.

11 And David became angry because of the Lord’s outbreak against Uzza; therefore that place is called¹ Perez Uzza to this day.

12 David was afraid of God that day, saying, “How can I bring the ark of God to me?”
