The people of Israel felt sorry for their brothers the Benjaminites and said, "Today Israel has lost one of its tribes.

Israel must not lose one of its twelve tribes. We must find a way for the tribe of Benjamin to survive,

and so that place has been called Perez Uzzah ever since. David was furious because the LORD had punished Uzzah in anger.

Because you were not there to carry it the first time, the LORD our God punished us for not worshiping him as we should have done."

You are guilty. You are like a high wall with a crack running down it; suddenly you will collapse.

Your people will rebuild what has long been in ruins, building again on the old foundations. You will be known as the people who rebuilt the walls, who restored the ruined houses."
