4 Uzzah was beside God’s chest while Ahio was walking in front of it.
5 Meanwhile, David and the entire house of Israel celebrated in the Lord’s presence with all their strength, with songs, zithers, harps, tambourines, rattles, and cymbals.
6 When they approached Nacon’s threshing floor, Uzzah reached out to God’s chest and grabbed it because the oxen had stumbled.
7 The Lord became angry at Uzzah, and God struck him there because of his mistake, and he died there next to God’s chest.
8 Then David got angry because the Lord’s anger lashed out against Uzzah, and so that place is called Perez-uzzah today.
9 David was frightened by the Lord that day. "How will I ever bring the Lord’s chest to me?" he asked.
10 So David didn’t take the chest away with him to David’s City. Instead, he had it put in the house of Obed-edom, who was from Gath.
