8Then David and all Israel made melody before God with all their strength, with songs and corded instruments of music, and with brass instruments and horns.
9And when they came to the grain-floor of Chidon, Uzza put out his hand to keep the ark in its place, for the oxen were slipping.
10And the wrath of the Lord, burning against Uzza, sent destruction on him because he had put his hand on the ark, and death came to him there before God.
11And David was angry because of the Lord's outburst of wrath against Uzza, and he gave that place the name Perez-uzza, to this day.
12And so great was David's fear of God that day, that he said, How may I let the ark of God come to me?
13So David did not let the ark come back to him to the town of David, but had it turned away and put into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
14And the ark of God was in the house of Obed-edom for three months; and the Lord sent a blessing on the house of Obed-edom and on all he had.
