2 Samuel 6:7-9
New Living Translation
7 Then the Lord’s anger was aroused against Uzzah, and God struck him dead because of this.[a] So Uzzah died right there beside the Ark of God.
8 David was angry because the Lord’s anger had burst out against Uzzah. He named that place Perez-uzzah (which means “to burst out against Uzzah”), as it is still called today.
9 David was now afraid of the Lord, and he asked, “How can I ever bring the Ark of the Lord back into my care?”
