1
And it came to pass, after the year
was expired
,
at the time
when
kings
go forth
to battle
, that David
sent
Joab
,
and his servants
with him,
and all
Israel;
and they destroyed
the children
of Ammon
,
and besieged
Rabbah
.
But David
tarried still
at Jerusalem
.
2
And it
came
to pass in an
evening
tide,
that David
arose
from off his bed
,
and walked
upon the roof
of the king's
house
:
and from the roof
he saw
a woman
washing
herself; and the woman
was
very
beautiful
to look upon
.
3
And David
sent
and inquired
after the woman
.
And
one
said
,
Is
not this Bathsheba
, the daughter
of Eliam
,
the wife
of Uriah
the
Hittite
?
4
And David
sent
messengers
,
and took
her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified
from her uncleanness
:
and she returned
unto her house
.
5
And the woman
conceived
,
and sent
and told
David
,
and said
,
I
am
with child
.
6
And David
sent
to Joab
,
saying
, Send
me
Uriah
the Hittite
.
And Joab
sent
Uriah
to David
.
7
And when Uriah
was come
unto him, David
demanded
of him
how Joab
did
,
and how the people
did
,
and how the war
prospered.
8
And David
said
to Uriah
,
Go down
to thy
house
,
and wash
thy feet
.
And Uriah
departed out
of the king's
house
,
and there followed
him a mess
of meat
from the king
.
9
But Uriah
slept
at the door
of the king's
house
with
all
the servants
of his lord
,
and went not down
to his
house
.
10
And when they had told
David
,
saying
,
Uriah
went not
down
unto his
house
,
David
said
unto
Uriah
,
Camest
thou not from
thy
journey? why
then
didst thou not go
down
unto thine
house
?
11
And Uriah
said
unto David
,
The ark
,
and Israel
,
and Judah
,
abide
in tents
;
and my lord
Joab
,
and the servants
of my lord
,
are encamped
in the open
fields
; shall I
then go
into mine house
,
to eat
and to drink
,
and to lie
with my wife?
as
thou livest,
and
as
thy soul
liveth
,
I will not do
this
thing
.
12
And David
said
to Uriah
,
Tarry
here
to day
also
, and to morrow
I will let thee depart
.
So Uriah
abode
in Jerusalem
that day
,
and the morrow
.
13
And when David
had called
him, he did eat
and drink
before
him; and he made him drunk:
and at even
he went out
to lie
on his bed
with the servants
of his lord
,
but went not down
to his house
.
14
And it came to pass in the morning
,
that David
wrote
a letter
to Joab
,
and sent
it
by the hand
of Uriah
.
15
And he wrote
in the letter
,
saying
,
Set
ye Uriah
in the forefront
of the hottest
battle
,
and retire
ye from him,
that he may be smitten
,
and die
.
16
And it came to pass, w
he
n Joab
observed
t
he
city
,
that
he
assigned
Uriah
unto a place
w
he
re
he
knew
that valiant
men
were
.
17
And the men
of the city
went out
,
and fought
with Joab
:
and there fell
some
of the people
of the servants
of David
;
and Uriah
the Hittite
died
also
.
18
Then Joab
sent
and told
David
all
the things
concerning the war
;
19
And charged
the messenger
,
saying
,
When thou hast made an end
of telling
the matters
of the war
unto the king
,
20
And if so be that the king's
wrath
arise
,
and he say
unto thee, Wherefore approached ye so nigh
unto the city
when ye did fight
? knew
ye not that they would shoot
from the
wall
?
21
Who
smote
Abimelech
the son
of
Jerubbesheth
? did not a woman
cast
a piece
of a millstone
upon him from
the wall
,
that he died
in Thebez? why went ye nigh
the wall
? then say thou, Thy servant
Uriah
the Hittite
is dead
also.
22
So the messenger
went,
and came
and shewed
David
all
that Joab
had sent
him for.
23
And the messenger
said
unto David
, Surely
the men
prevailed
against
us, and came out
unto us into the field
,
and we were upon them even unto the entering
of the gate
.
24
And the shooters shot
from off the wall
upon thy
servants
;
and
some
of the king's
servants
be dead
,
and thy servant
Uriah
the Hittite
is dead
also.
25
Then David
said
unto the messenger
,
Thus
shalt thou say
unto Joab
,
Let not
this
thing
displease thee, for the sword
devoureth
one
as well as another:
make thy battle
more strong
against
the city
,
and overthrow
it: and encourage thou him.
26
And when the wife
of Uriah
heard
that Uriah
her husband
was dead
,
she mourned
for
her husband
.
27
And when the mourning
was past
,
David
sent
and fetched
her to his house
,
and she
became
his wife
,
and bare
him a son
.
But the thing
that
David
had done
displeased
the LORD
.
