13 When the men who carried the Lord’s Holy Box had walked six steps, they stopped and David sacrificed a bull and a fat calf. The Lord blessed Obed Edom and all his family.ġ2 Later people told David, “The Lord has blessed the family of Obed Edom and everything he owns, because God’s Holy Box is there.” So David went and brought God’s Holy Box from Obed Edom’s house. 11 The Lord’s Holy Box stayed in Obed Edom’s house for three months. He put the Holy Box at the house of Obed Edom from Gath. David called that place “Perez Uzzah.” It is still called Perez Uzzah today.ĩ David became afraid of the Lord that day, and he said, “How can I bring God’s Holy Box here now?” 10 So David would not move the Lord’s Holy Box into the City of David. 8 David was upset because the Lord had killed Uzzah. Uzzah showed he did not honor God when he touched the Holy Box, so he died there by God’s Holy Box. 7 But the Lord was angry with Uzzah and killed him for that mistake.
6 When David’s men came to the threshing floor of Nacon, the oxen stumbled, and God’s Holy Box began to fall off the wagon. There were lyres, harps, drums, rattles, instruments made from cypress wood, and cymbals. 5 David and all the Israelites were dancing in front of the Lord and playing all kinds of musical instruments. Ahio was walking in front of the Holy Box. The sons of Abinadab, Uzzah and Ahio, drove the new wagon. Uzzah and Ahio, sons of Abinadab, were driving the new wagon.Ĥ So they carried the Holy Box out of Abinadab’s house on the hill. Then they put God’s Holy Box on a new wagon. 3 David’s men brought the Holy Box out of Abinadab’s house on the hill. The Holy Box is like God’s throne-people go there to call on the name of the Lord All-Powerful who sits as king above the Cherub angels that are on that Box. 2 Then David and all his men went to Baalah in Judah to take God’s Holy Box there. 6 David again gathered all the best soldiers in Israel.
