2 Samuel 6:7-9

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁷ The Lord became angry with Uzzah, so God killed him there for his lack of respect. He died beside the ark of God.

⁸ David was angry because the Lord had struck Uzzah so violently. (That place is still called Perez Uzzah [The Striking of Uzzah] today.) ⁹ David was afraid of the Lord that day. “How can the ark of the Lord come to my ⌞city⌟?” he asked.
