2 Samuel 6:6-8

Common English Bible

⁶ When they approached Nacon’s threshing floor, Uzzah reached out to God’s chest and grabbed it because the oxen had stumbled.^{[a] 7} The Lord became angry at Uzzah, and God struck him there because of his mistake,^[b] and he died there next to God’s chest. ⁸ Then David got angry because the Lord’s anger lashed out against Uzzah, and so that place is called Perez-uzzah today.^[c]
