2 Samuel 6:6-8
Lexham English Bible

6 When they came to the threshing floor of Nakon, Uzza reached out to the ark of God and took hold of it, because the oxen had stumbled. 7 Then the anger of Yahweh was kindled[a] against Uzza, and God struck him down there because of the indiscretion,[b] and he died there beside the ark of God. 8 David was angry[c] because Yahweh had burst out against Uzza, and he called that place Perez-Uzza until this day.
