2 Samuel 6:5-7
Evangelical Heritage Version

5 David and all the house of Israel were celebrating before the Lord with all kinds of instruments, castanets,[a] lyres, harps, hand drums, rattles,[b] and cymbals.

6 But when they came to the threshing floor of Nakon, Uzzah reached out for the Ark of God and grabbed it because the oxen stumbled. 7 The anger of the Lord burned against Uzzah, and God struck him there for his irreverence. So he died there beside the Ark of God.
