2 Samuel 6:7

6:7 The Lord was so furious with Uzzah, he killed him on the spot for his negligence. He died right there beside the ark of God.

2 Samuel 6:9

6:9 David was afraid of the Lord that day and said, “How will the ark of the Lord ever come to me?”

tn Heb “and the anger of the Lord burned against Uzzah.”

tn Heb “God.”

tc Heb “there.” Since this same term occurs later in the verse it is translated “on the spot” here for stylistic reasons.

tc The phrase “his negligence” is absent from the LXX.
