2 Samuel 6
6:1And David gathered again every young man of Israel -- thirty thousand.
6:2And David rose up and went, and all the people with him, and some of the rulers of Judah, to lead from there the ark of God, upon which the name of the lord of the forces is called upon, the one sitting upon the cherubim upon it.
6:3And they set the ark of God upon a new wagon, and lifted it from out of the house of Abinadab, the one on the hill. And Uzzah and his brethren, the sons of Abinadab, led the wagon with the ark.
6:4And his brethren went in front of the ark.
6:5And David and all the sons of Israel played before the lord with instruments in accord, and with odes, and with lutes, and with stringed instruments, and with tambourines, and with cymbals, and with pipes.
6:6And they come unto the threshing-floor of Nachon, and Uzzah stretched out his hand to the ark of God to hold it. And he held it, for the calf distracted it.
6:7And the lord was enraged in anger with Uzzah; and God struck him there for the rashness; and he died there by the ark of the lord before God.
6:8And David was depressed because of which the lord cut severance with Uzzah. And he called that place, Severance of Uzzah, until this day.
6:9And David feared the lord in that day, saying, How shall the ark of God enter to me?
6:10And David did not want to turn aside to himself the ark of the covenant of the lord into the city of David. And David turned off with it into the house of Obed Edom the Gittite.
6:11And the ark of the lord stayed in the house of Obed Edom the Gittite three months. And the lord blessed the entire house of Obed Edom and all the things of his.
6:12And it was reported to king David, saying, The lord blessed the house of Obed Edom, and all of his, because of the ark of God. And David went and led the ark of the lord from out of the house of Obed Edom into the city of David with gladness.
6:13And there were with him the ones lifting the ark of the lord, seven companies of dancers, and a calf and lambs for sacrifice.
6:14And David played music with instruments in accord in the presence of the lord. And David was clothed in a special robe.
6:15And David and all the house of Israel led the ark of the lord with a cry, and with the sound of a trumpet.
6:16And it happened of the ark coming unto the city of David, that Michal daughter of Saul looked through the window, and she saw king David dancing and playing music before the lord; and she treated him with contempt in her heart.
6:17And they carried in the ark of the lord, and put it aside in its place, in the middle of the tent which David pitched for it. And David offered whole burnt-offerings before the lord, and peace offerings.
6:18And David completed offering the whole burnt-offerings, and the peace offerings; and he blessed the people in the name of the lord of the forces.
6:19And he portioned to all the people among all the force of Israel, from man unto woman, to each a biscuit of bread, and broiled meat, and a pancake from the frying pan. And all the people went forth each to his house.
6:20And David returned to bless his house. And Michal the daughter of Saul came forth to meet David, and she said, How was the king of Israel glorified today, who was uncovered today in the eyes of the girls of his servants, as one uncovers by uncovering of the ones dancing.
6:21And David said to Michal, In the presence of the lord I will dance, who chose me over your father, and over all his house, to place me in the lead over his people Israel; and I shall play and dance in the presence of the lord.
6:22And I will be uncovered again thus, and I will be useless in your eyes, and with the girls of whom you said of me, I was not extolled.
6:23And Michal daughter of Saul did not have a child unto the day of her dying.
