1 Chronicles 13:11-13
New English Translation
11 David was angry because the Lord attacked Uzzah;[a] so he called that place Perez Uzzah,[b] which remains its name to this very day. 12 David was afraid of God that day and said, “How will I ever be able to bring the ark of God up here?” 13 So David did not move the ark to the City of David;[c] he left it in the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.
