2 Samuel 6:6-8
New Life Version
6 But the cattle pulling the wagon almost made the special box of God fall when they came to the grain-floor of Nacon. So Uzzah put out his hand and took hold of the special box so it would not fall. 7 The anger of the Lord burned against Uzzah. God killed him there for his mistake. And he died there by the special box of God. 8 David became angry because the Lord had gone against Uzzah. So that place is called Perez-uzzah to this day.

6 When they came to the threshing floor of Nakon, Uzzah reached out and took hold of(A) the ark of God, because the oxen stumbled. 7 The Lord’s anger burned against Uzzah because of his irreverent act;(B) therefore God struck him down,(C) and he died there beside the ark of God.
8 Then David was angry because the Lord’s wrath(D) had broken out against Uzzah, and to this day that place is called Perez Uzzah.[a](E)
