Book of I Chronicles- Moving the Ark of God


I Chronicles 13:7-14 (NKJV)

[7] So they carried the ark of God on a new cart from the house of Abinadab, and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.
[8] Then David and all Israel played music before God with all their might, with singing, on harps, on stringed instruments, on tambourines, on cymbals, and with trumpets.
[9] And when they came to Chidon’s threshing floor, Uzza put out his hand to hold the ark, for the oxen stumbled.
[10] Then the anger of the Lord was aroused against Uzza, and He struck him because he put his hand to the ark; and he died there before God.
[11] And David became angry because of the Lord’s outbreak against Uzza; therefore that place is called Perez Uzza to this day.
[12] David was afraid of God that day, saying, “How can I bring the ark of God to me?”
[13] So David would not move the ark with him into the City of David, but took it aside into the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.
[14] The ark of God remained with the family of Obed-Edom in his house three months. And the Lord blessed the house of Obed-Edom and all that he had.
