19 bAnd he struck some of the men of Beth-shemesh, because they looked upon the ark of the Lord. He struck seventy men of them, ▼▼Most Hebrew manuscripts struck of the people seventy men, fifty thousand men
and the people mourned because the Lord had struck the people with a great blow. 20Then the men of Beth-shemesh said, d“Who is able to stand before the Lord, this holy God? And to whom shall he go up away from us?” 21So they sent messengers to the inhabitants of eKiriath-jearim, saying, “The Philistines have returned the ark of the Lord. Come down and take it up to you.” 2 Samuel 6:6-12
6And when they came to the threshing floor of fNacon, Uzzah gput out his hand to the ark of God and took hold of it, for the oxen stumbled. 7And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Uzzah, and hGod struck him down there because of his error, and he died there beside the ark of God. 8And David was angry because the Lord had broken out against Uzzah. And that place is called Perez-uzzah ▼▼ Perez-uzzah means the breaking out against Uzzah
to this day. 9And David was afraid of the Lord that day, and he said, “How can the ark of the Lord come to me?” 10So David was not willing to take the ark of the Lord into the city of David. But David took it aside jto the house of Obed-edom the Gittite. 11And the ark of the Lord remained in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite three months, kand the Lord blessed Obed-edom and all his household. 12And it was told King David, “The Lord has blessed the household of Obed-edom and all that belongs to him, because of the ark of God.” lSo David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-edom mto the city of David with rejoicing.
