1 Chronicles

1 Chronicles 13:11–13

11Then David became angry because the LORD had burst forth against Uzzah. So he named that place Perez-uzzah,e as it is called to this day.

12That day David feared God and asked, “How can I ever bring the ark of God to me?” 13So he did not move the ark with him to the City of David; instead, he took it aside to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
