Contextual Overview
9 But when they came to Chidon's threshing place, the oxen stumbled, and Uzzah reached out and took hold of the chest to stop it from falling. 10 The Lord God was very angry at Uzzah for doing this, and he killed Uzzah right there beside the chest. 11 David then got angry at God for killing Uzzah. So he named that place "Attack on Uzzah," and it's been called that ever since. 12 David was afraid what the Lord might do to him, and he asked himself, "Should I really be the one to take care of the sacred chest?" 13 So instead of taking it to Jerusalem, David decided to take it to the home of Obed-Edom, who lived in the town of Gath. 14 The chest stayed there for three months, and the Lord blessed Obed-Edom, his family, and everything he owned.
