2 Samuel 11:1At evening, David arose from his bed and walked on the roof of the king’s house. From the roof, he saw a woman bathing, and the woman was very beautiful to look at.2 Samuel 11:2David sent and inquired after the woman. One said, “Isn’t this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, Uriah the Hittite’s wife?”2 Samuel 11:3David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in to him, and he lay with her (for she was purified from her uncleanness); and she returned to her house.2 Samuel 11:4The woman conceived; and she sent and told David, and said, “I am with child.”2 Samuel 11:5David) sent to Joab, “Send me Uriah the Hittite.” Joab sent Uriah to David.
2 Samuel 11:6When Uriah had come to him, David) asked him how Joab did, and how the people fared, and how the war prospered.2 Samuel 11:7David said to Uriah, “Go down to your house and wash your feet.” Uriah departed out of the king’s house, and a gift from the king was sent after him.2 Samuel 11:8But Uriah slept at the door of the king’s house with all the servants of his lord, and didn’t go down to his house.2 Samuel 11:9When they had told David), saying, “Uriah didn’t go down to his house,” David said to Uriah, “Haven’t you come from a journey? Why didn’t you go down to your house?”2 Samuel 11:10Uriah said to David, “The ark, Israel, and Judah, are staying in tents; and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord, are encamped in the open field. Shall I then go into my house to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife? As you live, and as your soul lives, I will not do this thing!”2 Samuel 11:11David said to Uriah, “Stay here today also, and tomorrow I will let you depart.” So Uriah stayed in Jerusalem that day, and the next day.2 Samuel 11:12When David had called him, he ate and drank before him; and he made him drunk. At evening, he went out to lie on his bed with the servants of his lord, but didn’t go down to his house.2 Samuel 11:13In the morning, David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriah.
2 Samuel 11:14He wrote in the letter, saying, “Send Uriah to the forefront of the hottest battle, and retreat from him, that he may be struck, and die.”2 Samuel 11:15When Joab kept watch on the city, he assigned Uriah to the place where he knew that valiant men were.2 Samuel 11:16The men of the city went out, and fought with Joab. Some of the people fell, even of David’s servants; and Uriah the Hittite died also.2 Samuel 11:17Then Joab sent and told David all the things concerning the war;2 Samuel 11:18and he commanded the messenger, saying, “When you have finished telling all the things concerning the war to the king,2 Samuel 11:19it shall be that, if the king’s wrath arise, and he asks you, ‘Why did you go so near to the city to fight? Didn’t you know that they would shoot from the wall?2 Samuel 11:20Who struck Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? Didn’t a woman cast an upper millstone on him from the wall, so that he died at Thebez? Why did you go so near the wall?’ then you shall say, ‘Your servant Uriah the Hittite is also dead.’ ”2 Samuel 11:21So the messenger went, and came and showed David) all that Joab had sent him for.2 Samuel 11:22The messenger said to David, “The men prevailed against us, and came out to us into the field, and we were on them even to the entrance of the gate.2 Samuel 11:23The shooters shot at your servants from off the wall; and some of the king’s servants are dead, and your servant Uriah the Hittite is also dead.”2 Samuel 11:24Then David said to the messenger, “Tell Joab, ‘Don’t let this thing displease you, for the sword devours one as well as another. Make your battle stronger against the city, and overthrow it.’ Encourage him.”2 Samuel 11:25When Uriah’s wife heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she mourned for her husband.2 Samuel 11:26When the mourning was past, David) sent and took her home to his house, and she became his wife, and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased Yahweh.
