1 Chronicles Chapter 13

The Webster Bible

   1: And David consulted with the captains of thousands, and of hundreds, [and] with every leader.
   2: And David said to all the congregation of Israel, If [it seemeth] good to you, and [that it is] of the LORD our God, let us send abroad to our brethren every where, [that are] left in all the land of Israel, and with them [also] to the priests and Levites [who are] in their cities [and] suburbs, that they may assemble to us:
   3: And let us bring again to us the ark of our God: for we inquired not at it in the days of Saul.
   4: And all the congregation said that they would do so: for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.
   5: So David assembled all Israel, from Shihor of Egypt even to the entrance of Hemath, to bring the ark of God from Kirjath-jearim.
   6: And David went up, and all Israel, to Baalah, [that is], to Kirjath-jearim, which [belonged] to Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God the LORD, that dwelleth [between] the cherubim, whose name is called [on it].
   7: And they carried the ark of God in a new cart out of the house of Abinadab: and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.
   8: And David and all Israel played before God with all [their] might, and with singing, and with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.
   9: And when they came to the threshing-floor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark; for the oxen stumbled.
   10: And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzza, and he smote him, because he put his hand to the ark: and there he died before God.
   11: And David was displeased, because the LORD had made a breach upon Uzza: wherefore that place is called Perez-uzza to this day.
   12: And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God [home] to me?
   13: So David brought not the ark to himself to the city of David, but carried it aside into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
   14: And the ark of God remained with the family of Obed-edom in his house three months. And the LORD blessed the house of Obed-edom, and all that he had.
