2 Samuel 6:7-9
Common English Bible
7 The Lord became angry at Uzzah, and God struck him there because of his mistake,[a] and he died there next to God’s chest. 8 Then David got angry because the Lord’s anger lashed out against Uzzah, and so that place is called Perez-uzzah today.[b]
9 David was frightened by the Lord that day. “How will I ever bring the Lord’s chest to me?” he asked.
