Context Reading
7Yahweh’s anger burned against Uzzah, and God struck him there for his error; and he died there by God’s ark. 8David was displeased because Yahweh had broken out against Uzzah; and he called that place Perez Uzzahto this day. 9David was afraid of Yahweh that day; and he said, “How could Yahweh’s ark come to me?” 10So David would not move Yahweh’s ark to be with him in David’s city; but David carried it aside into Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house. 11Yahweh’s ark remained in Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house three months; and Yahweh blessed Obed-Edom and all his house.
