5David and all the house of Israel played before Yahweh with all manner of [instruments made of] fir-wood, and with harps, and with psalteries, and with tambourines, and with castanets, and with cymbals.
6When 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.
7The anger of Yahweh was kindled against Uzzah; and God struck him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God.
8David was displeased, because Yahweh had broken forth on Uzzah; and he called that place Perez-uzzah, to this day.
9David was afraid of Yahweh that day; and he said, How shall the ark of Yahweh come to me?
10So 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.
11The ark of Yahweh remained in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite three months: and Yahweh blessed Obed-edom, and all his house.
