1 Chronicles 13:3-11 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

3. And let us bring again the ark of our God to us: for we have not inquired at it in the days of Saul.

4. And all the congregation said that they would do so: for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.

5. So David gathered all Israel together, from Shihor of Egypt even unto the entrance of Hamath, to bring the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim.

6. And David went up, and all Israel, to Baalah, that is, to Kiriath-jearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God the LORD, who dwells between the cherubim, whose name is proclaimed there.

7. And they carried the ark of God in a new cart out of the house of Abinadab: and Uzzah and Ahio drove the cart.

8. And David and all Israel played before God with all their might, and with singing, and with harps, and with lyres, and with tambourines, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.

9. And when they came unto the threshingfloor of Chidon, Uzzah put forth his hand to hold the ark; for the oxen stumbled.

10. And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah, and he struck him, because he put his hand to the ark: and there he died before God.

11. And David was displeased, because the LORD had broken forth upon Uzzah: therefore that place is called Perez-uzza to this day.
