2 Samuel 6:5-7
Names of God Bible
5 David and the entire nation of Israel were celebrating in Yahweh’s presence with all kinds of instruments made from cypress wood[a] and with lyres, harps, tambourines, sistrums,[b] and cymbals.
6 But when they came to Nacon’s threshing floor,[c] the oxen stumbled. So Uzzah reached out for the ark of Elohim and grabbed it. 7 Yahweh became angry with Uzzah, so God killed him there for his lack of respect. He died beside the ark of Elohim.
