1 Chronicles 13:9-14 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

9. When they came to the threshing floor of Chidon, Uzza put out his hand to hold the ark, because the oxen nearly upset it.

10. The anger of the Lord burned against Uzza, so He struck him down because he put out his hand to the ark; and he died there before God.

11. Then David became angry because of the Lord's outburst against Uzza; and he called that place Perez-uzza to this day.

12. David was afraid of God that day, saying, "How can I bring the ark of God home to me?"

13. So David did not take the ark with him to the city of David, but took it aside to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.

14. Thus the ark of God remained with the family of Obed-edom in his house three months; and the Lord blessed the family of Obed-edom with all that he had.
