13Then David consulted with the captains of the thousands and the hundreds, even with every leader.H1732H3289H8269H505H3967H5057 2And David said to all the assembly of Israel, "If it seems good to you, and if it is from the LORD our God, let us send everywhere to our kinsmen who remain in all the land of Israel, also to the priests and Levites who are with them in their cities with pasture lands, that they may meet with us;H1732H559H6951H3478H2895H3068H430H7971H6555H251H7604H776H3478H3548H3881H5892H4054H6908 3and let us bring back the ark of our God to us, for we did not seek it in the days of Saul. "H5437H727H430H1875H3117H7586 4Then all the assembly said that they would do so, for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.H6951H559H6213H1697H3474H5869H5971 5So David assembled all Israel together, from the Shihor of Egypt even to the entrance of Hamath, to bring the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim.H1732H6950H3478H6950H7883H4714H935H2574H935H727H430H7157 6And David and all Israel went up to Baalah, [that is,] to Kiriath-jearim, which belongs to Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God, the LORD who is enthroned [above] the cherubim, where His name is called.H1732H5927H3478H1173H7157H3063H5927H727H430H3068H3427H3742H8034H7121 7And they carried the ark of God on a new cart from the house of Abinadab, and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.H7392H727H430H2319H5699H1004H41H5798H283H5090H5699 8And David and all Israel were celebrating before God with all [their] might, even with songs and with lyres, harps, tambourines, cymbals, and with trumpets.H1732H3478H7832H6440H430H5797H7892H3658H5035H8596H4700H2689 9When they came to the threshing floor of Chidon, Uzza put out his hand to hold the ark, because the oxen nearly upset [it.]H935H1637H3592H5798H7971H3027H270H727H1241H8058 10And the anger of the LORD burned against Uzza, so He struck him down because he put out his hand to the ark; and he died there before God.H639H3068H2734H5798H5221H7971H3027H727H4191H6440H430 11Then David became angry because of the Lord's outburst against Uzza; and he called that place Perez-uzza to this day.H1732H2734H3068H6555H6556H5798H4725H7121H6560H3117 12And David was afraid of God that day, saying, "How can I bring the ark of God [home] to me?"H1732H3372H430H3117H559H1963H935H727H430 13So David did not take the ark with him to the city of David, but took it aside to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.H1732H5493H727H5892H1732H5186H1004H5654H1663 14Thus the ark of God remained with the family of Obed-edom in his house three months; and the LORD blessed the family of Obed-edom with all that he had.H727H430H3427H1004H5654H1004H7969H2320H3068H1288H1004H5654
