11
David was angry because the Lord had burst out against Uzzah; so that place is called Perez-uzzah to this day.
12
David was afraid of God that day; he said, "How can I bring the ark of God into my care?"
13
So David did not take the ark into his care into the city of David; he took it instead to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
14
The ark of God remained with the household of Obed-edom in his house three months, and the Lord blessed the household of Obed-edom and all that he had.
