2 Samuel 6:6-8
Good News Translation
6 As they came to the threshing place of Nacon, the oxen stumbled, and Uzzah reached out and took hold of the Covenant Box. 7 At once the Lord God became angry with Uzzah and killed him because of his irreverence.[a] Uzzah died there beside the Covenant Box, 8 and so that place has been called Perez Uzzah[b] ever since. David was furious because the Lord had punished Uzzah in anger.
