1 And David again gathered together all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand. 2 And David arose, and went with all the people who were with him to Baalah, that is, Kiriath Jearim of Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God, which is called there by the name of the LORD enthroned on the cherubim. 3 And they set the ark of God on a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab that was on the hill. And Uzza and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, guided the cart 4 with the ark; and Ahio was walking in front of the ark. 5 And David and the children of Israel played before the LORD with all their strength and with songs, and with harps, and with stringed instruments, and with tambourines, and with castanets, and with cymbals. 6 And when they came to the threshing floor of Nodan, Uzza reached out his hand to the ark of God, to steady it; for the oxen stumbled. 7 And the LORD became angry at Uzza; and God struck him there for his error; and there he died before God. 2 Samuel 6:1-7, New Heart English Bible.
