1 Chronicles 13:8 In-Context

6 David and all Israel went to Baalah (that is, Kiriath-jearim), which belongs to Judah, to take from there the ark of God, which is called by the name of the Lord who dwells [between] the cherubim.
7 At Abinadab's house, they set the ark of God on a new cart. Uzzah and Ahio were guiding the cart.
8 David and all Israel were celebrating with all their might before God with songs and with lyres, harps, tambourines, cymbals, and trumpets.
9 When they came to Chidon's threshing floor, Uzzah reached out to hold the ark, because the oxen had stumbled.
10 Then the Lord's anger burned against Uzzah, and He struck him dead because he had reached out to the ark. So he died there in the presence of God.
