ULT 2 SAM Chapter 11

2 SAM 11 ©

11And it happened, at the return of the year, at the time of the going out of kings, that David sent Joab and his servants with him and all of Israel, and they destroyed the sons of Ammon, and they besieged against Rabbah. But David stayed in Jerusalem.

2And it happened, at the time of the evening, that David arose from his bed and walked about on the roof of the house of the king. And from the roof he saw a woman bathing. And the woman was very good of appearance. 3And David sent and inquired about the woman. And one said, “Is this not Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?” 4And David sent messengers, and he took her. And she came to him, and he lay with her. (Now she had been sanctifying herself from her uncleanness.) And she returned to her house. 5Αnd the woman became pregnant, and she sent and declared to David, and she said, “I am pregnant.”

6And David sent to Joab, “Send Uriah the Hittite to me.” So Joab sent Uriah to David. 7And Uriah came to him, and David asked about the welfare of Joab and about the welfare of the people and about the welfare of the war. 8And David said to Uriah, “Go down to your house, and wash your feet.” And Uriah went out from the house of the king, and a gift from the king went out after him. 9But Uriah lay down at the entrance of the house of the king with all of the servants of his master, and he did not go down to his house.

10And they declared to David, saying, “Uriah did not go down to his house.” And David said to Uriah, “Are you not coming from a journey? Why did you not go down to your house?”

11And Uriah said to David, “The Box and Israel and Judah are dwelling in tents, and my master Joab and the servants of my master are camping on the face of the field. And I, shall I go to my house to eat and to drink and to lie with my wife? Your life, and the life of your soul, I will not do this thing!”

12And David said to Uriah, “Stay here today also, and tomorrow I will send you back.” So Uriah stayed in Jerusalem on that day and into the next day. 13And David called to him, and he ate to his face, and he drank, and he got him drunk. But he went out in the evening to lie down in his bed with the servants of his master, and he did not go down to his house.

14And it happened in the morning that David wrote a letter to Joab, and he sent it by the hand of Uriah. 15And he wrote in the letter, saying, “Put Uriah in the front of the face of the strongest battle, and turn them back from behind him so he will be struck and die.”

16And it happened, when Joab looked at the city, that he put Uriah in the place where he knew that men of valor were there. 17And the men of the city came out, and they fought with Joab, and some of the people from the servants of David fell. And Uriah the Hittite also died.

18And Joab sent, and he declared to David all of the things of the battle. 19And he commanded the messenger, saying, “When you have finished to speak to the king all of the things of the battle, 20it will be, if the heat of the king rises and he says to you, ‘Why did you draw near to the city to fight? Did you not know that they would shoot from the wall? 21Who struck Abimelech, the son of Jerubbesheth? Did not a woman throw a piece of a millstone onto him from the wall, and he died in Thebez? Why did you draw near to the wall?’ then you shall say, ‘Your servant Uriah the Hittite is also dead.’ ”

22So the messenger went, and he came and declared to David all that Joab had sent him to say. 23And the messenger said to David that “the men became strong against us and they came out against us to the field, but we were against them to the entrance of the gate. 24And the shooters shot at your servants from the wall, and some of the servants of the king died, and also your servant Uriah the Hittite died.”

25And David said to the messenger, “Thus you shall say to Joab, ‘May this matter not be bad in your eyes, for like this and like this the sword devours. Strengthen your battle against the city and destroy it.’ So strengthen him.”

26And the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her man had died. And she lamented for her husband. 27And the mourning passed, and David sent and gathered her to his house, and she became a wife to him, and she bore a son to him. But the thing that David had done was bad in the eyes of Yahweh.
