2 Samuel 6

6 Ref When 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.

7 Ref The anger of Yahweh was kindled against Uzzah; and God struck him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God.

8 Ref David was displeased, because Yahweh had broken forth on Uzzah; and he called that place Perez Uzzah, to this day.

9 Ref David was afraid of Yahweh that day; and he said, How shall the ark of Yahweh come to me?

10 Ref So 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.

11 Ref The ark of Yahweh remained in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite three months: and Yahweh blessed Obed-edom, and all his house.

12 Ref It was told king David, saying, Yahweh has blessed the house of Obed-edom, and all that pertains to him, because of the ark of God. David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-edom into the city of David with joy.
