8 David was upset because of Adonai’s outburst against Uzzah. That place is called Perez-uzzah to this day.
9 So David was frightened of Adonai that day. Then he said, “How can the ark of Adonai come to me?”
10 David was unwilling to move the ark of Adonai to him, to the City of David; instead, David diverted it to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
11 So the ark of Adonai remained in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite three months; meanwhile Adonai blessed Obed-edom and his entire household.
12 Then it was reported to King David saying, “Adonai has blessed the house of Obed-edom and all that belongs to him, because of the ark of God.” So David went and brought the ark of God up from the house of Obed-edom to the city of David with joy.
13 Now when the bearers of the ark of Adonai had gone six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fatling.
14 Meanwhile, David was dancing before Adonai with all his might while he was wearing a linen ephod.
