6 When they came to the threshing floor of Nacon, Uzzah put forth [his hand] to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen stumbled.
7 The anger of Yahweh was kindled against Uzzah; and God struck him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God.
8 David was displeased, because Yahweh had broken forth on Uzzah; and he called that place Perez Uzzah, to this day.
9 David was afraid of Yahweh that day; and he said, How shall the ark of Yahweh come to me?
10 So David would not remove the ark of Yahweh to him into the city of David; but David carried it aside into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
