2 Samuel 6:7-9

New International Reader's Version

⁷ Then the Lord was very angry with Uzzah. That’s because what Uzzah did showed that he didn’t have any respect for the Lord. So God struck him down. He died there beside the ark of God.

⁸ David was angry because the Lord’s great anger had broken out against Uzzah. That’s why the place is still called Perez Uzzah to this day.

⁹ David was afraid of the Lord that day. He asked, “How can the ark of the Lord ever be brought to me?”
