1 Chronicles 13:12-16

David was afraid of God that day, saying, “How can I bring the ark of God home to me?”

So David did not take the ark with him to the city of David, but took it aside to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.

And the ark of God remained with the family of Obed-edom in his house for three months; and the Lord blessed the family of Obed-edom and all that he had.
