Scriptures

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

1 Chronicles 13
⁷ They carried the ark of God on a new cart from the house of Abinadab, and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.
⁸ David and all Israel were celebrating before God with all their might, even with songs and with lyres, harps, tambourines, cymbals and with trumpets.
⁹ When they came to the threshing floor of Chidon, Uzza put out his hand to hold the ark, because the oxen nearly upset it.
¹⁰ The anger of the Lord burned against Uzza, so He struck him down because he put out his hand to the ark; and he died there before God.
¹¹ Then David became angry because of the Lord’s outburst against Uzza; and he called that place Perez-uzza to this day.
¹² David was afraid of God that day, saying, "How can I bring the ark of God home to me?"
¹³ So David did not take the ark with him to the city of David, but took it aside to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
¹⁴ Thus the ark of God remained with the family of Obed-edom in his house three months; and the Lord blessed the family of Obed-edom with all that he had.
1 Chronicles 14
¹ Now Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David with cedar trees, masons and carpenters, to build a house for him.
² And David realized that the Lord had established him as king over Israel, and that his kingdom was highly exalted, for the sake of His people Israel.
³ Then David took more wives at Jerusalem, and David became the father of more sons and daughters.
