Psalms 119:120My flesh trembles in awe of You; I stand in fear of Your judgments.1 Chronicles 13:11–12Then David became angry because the LORD had burst forth against Uzzah; so he named that place Perez-uzzah, as it is called to this day.1 Chronicles 13:11Then David became angry because the LORD had burst forth against Uzzah; so he named that place Perez-uzzah, as it is called to this day.Numbers 17:12–13Then the Israelites declared to Moses, “Look, we are perishing!
