1 Chronicles 13:10-12

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁰ The Lord became very angry with Uzzah and killed him because he touched the Holy Box. So Uzzah died there before God. ¹¹ And David was angry because the Lord had shown his anger in killing Uzzah. So that place has been called “Perez Uzzah”^[a] ever since then.

¹² That day David began to fear what God might do to him. So he said, “Should I really be the one in charge of God’s Holy Box?”
