2Samuel:6:2-11
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And David arose and went with all the people who were with him from Ba '
ale-judah ,
to bring up from there the ark of God ,
which is called by the name of the LORD of hosts who sits enthroned on the cherubim .
*
And they carried the ark of God upon a new cart ,
and brought it out of the house of Abin '
adab which was on the hill ;
and Uzzah and Ahi '
o ,
the sons of Abin '
adab ,
were driving the new cart
*
with the ark of God ;
and Ahi '
o went before the ark .
*
And David and all the house of Israel were making merry before the LORD with all their might ,
with songs and lyres and harps and tambourines and castanets and cymbals .
*
And when they came to the threshing floor of Nacon ,
Uzzah put out his hand to the ark of God and took hold of it ,
for the oxen stumbled .
*
And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah ;
and God smote him there because he put forth his hand to the ark ;
and he died there beside the ark of God .
*
And David was angry because the LORD had broken forth upon Uzzah ;
and that place is called Pe '
rez-uz '
zah ,
to this day .
*
And David was afraid of the LORD that day ;
and he said , "
How can the ark of the LORD come to me ?"
*
So David was not willing to take the ark of the LORD into the city of David ;
but David took it aside to the house of O '
bed-e '
dom the Gittite .
*
And the ark of the LORD remained in the house of O '
bed-e '
dom the Gittite three months ;
and the LORD blessed O '
bed-e '
dom and all his household .
