2 Samuel 6

David goes with thirty thousand men to being the ark from Kiriath-jearim to Jerusalem, 2 Samuel 6:1-5 . The ox stumbling, Uzzah, who drove the cart on which the ark was placed, put forth his hand to save it from falling: the Lord was displeased, and smote him so that he died, 2 Samuel 6:6 , 2 Samuel 6:7 . David, being alarmed, carries the ark to the house of Obed-edom, 2 Samuel 6:8-10 . Here it remained three months; and God prospered Obed-edom, in whose house it was deposited, 2 Samuel 6:11 . David, hearing of this, brings the ark, with sacrifices and solemn rejoicings, to Jerusalem, 2 Samuel 6:12-15 . Michal, seeing David dance before the ark, despises him, 2 Samuel 6:16 . He offers burnt-offerings and peace offerings, and deals among all the people, men and women, a cake of bread, a good piece of flesh, and a flagon of wine each, 2 Samuel 6:17-19 . Michal coming to meet him, and seeing him dance extravagantly before the ark, reproaches him for his conduct: he vindicates himself, reproves her, and she dies childless, 2 Samuel 6:20-23 .
