10:005:025 And David did so, as the lord had
commanded him; and smote the
Philistines
from Geba until thou come to Gazer.
10:006:001 Again, David gathered together all the
chosen men of Israel,
thirty
thousand.
10:006:002 And David arose, and went with all the
people that were with
him
from Baale of Judah, to bring up from thence the ark
of
God,
whose name is called by the name of the lord of
hosts
that
dwelleth between the cherubims.
10:006:003 And they set the ark of God upon a new
cart, and brought it
out
of the house of Abinadab that was in Gibeah: and
Uzzah and
Ahio,
the sons of Abinadab, drave the new cart.
10:006:004 And they brought it out of the house of
Abinadab which was at
Gibeah,
accompanying the ark of God: and Ahio went before
the
ark.
10:006:005 And David and all the house of Israel played
before the lord
on
all manner of instruments made of fir wood, even on
harps,
and
on psalteries, and on timbrels, and on cornets, and
on
cymbals.
10:006:006 And when they came to Nachon’s threshingfloor,
Uzzah put forth
his
hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the
oxen
shook
it.
10:006:007 And the anger of the lord was kindled
against Uzzah; and God
smote
him there for his error; and there he died by the ark
of
God.
10:006:008 And David was displeased, because the lord
had made a breach
upon
Uzzah: and he called the name of the place Perezuzzah
to
this
day.
10:006:009 And David was afraid of the lord that
day, and said, How shall
the
ark of the lord come to me?
10:006:010 So David would not remove the ark of the
lord unto him into
the
city of David: but David carried it aside into
the house
of
Obededom the Gittite.
10:006:011 And the ark of the lord continued
in the house of Obededom the
Gittite
three months: and the lord blessed Obededom,
and all
his
household.
10:006:012 And it was told king David, saying, The
lord hath blessed the
house
of Obededom, and all that pertaineth unto him, because
of
the ark of God. So David went and brought up the
ark of God
from
the house of Obededom into the city of David with
gladness.
10:006:013 And it was so, that when they that bare
the ark of the lord
had
gone six paces, he sacrificed oxen and fatlings.
10:006:014 And David danced before the lord with
all his might; and David
was
girded with a linen ephod.
