II SAMUEL

II Samuel 11

1Now it happened that, at the turn of the year, in the time when kings usually go forth to war, David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all of Israel, and they laid waste to the sons of Ammon, and they besieged Rabbah. But David remained in Jerusalem.
1 Chronicles 20:1, 1 Chronicles 20:1, 1 Kings 20:26, 1 Kings 20:26, 1 Kings 20:22
2While these things were taking place, David happened to arise from his bed after midday, and he walked upon the terrace of the king’s house. And he saw, across from his terrace, a woman washing herself. And the woman was very beautiful.
Matthew 5:28, Matthew 5:28, Psalms 119:37, Psalms 119:37, Proverbs 6:25
3Therefore, the king sent and inquired who the woman might be. And it was reported to him that she was Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah, the Hittite.
2 Samuel 23:39, 2 Samuel 23:39, 1 Chronicles 3:5, 1 Chronicles 3:5, Jeremiah 5:8
4And so, David sent messengers, and he took her. And when she had entered to him, he slept with her. And presently, she was purified from her uncleanness.
Leviticus 18:19, Leviticus 18:19, James 1:14, James 1:15, James 1:14
5And she returned to her house, having conceived an unborn child. And sending, she informed David, and she said, “I have conceived.”
Deuteronomy 22:22, Deuteronomy 22:22, Proverbs 6:34, Proverbs 6:34
6Then David sent to Joab, saying, “Send me Uriah, the Hittite.” And Joab sent Uriah to David.
Proverbs 28:13, Proverbs 28:13, Matthew 26:70, Isaiah 29:13, Job 20:12
7And Uriah went to David. And David inquired whether Joab was doing well, and about the people, and how the war was being conducted.
Genesis 37:14, 1 Samuel 17:22, Genesis 37:14, 1 Samuel 17:22, Genesis 29:6
8And David said to Uriah, “Go into your house, and wash your feet.” And Uriah departed from the house of the king. And a meal from the king followed after him.
Genesis 18:4, Genesis 18:4, Psalms 55:21, Psalms 44:21, Hebrews 4:13
9But Uriah slept before the gate of the king’s house, with the other servants of his lord, and he did not go down to his own house.
Job 5:12, Job 5:14, Proverbs 21:30, Job 5:12, Job 5:14
10And it was reported to David by some, saying, “Uriah did not go into his house.” And David said to Uriah: “Did you not arrive from a journey? Why did you not go down to your house?”
11And Uriah said to David: “The ark of God, and Israel and Judah, dwell in tents, and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, stay upon the face of the earth. And should I then go into my own house, so that I may eat and drink, and sleep with my wife? By your welfare and by the welfare of your soul, I will not do this thing.”
2 Samuel 7:2, 2 Samuel 7:2, 2 Samuel 7:6, 2 Samuel 20:6, 2 Samuel 7:6
12Therefore, David said to Uriah, “Even so, remain here today, and tomorrow I will send you away.” So Uriah remained in Jerusalem, on that day and the next.
Jeremiah 2:22, Jeremiah 2:23, Jeremiah 2:37, Jeremiah 2:22, Jeremiah 2:23
13And David called him, so that he might eat and drink before him, and he made him inebriated. And departing in the evening, he slept on his bedding, with the servants of his lord, and he did not go down to his own house.
Habakkuk 2:15, Habakkuk 2:15, Genesis 19:32, Genesis 19:35, Genesis 19:32
14Therefore, when morning arrived, David wrote a letter to Joab. And he sent it by the hand of Uriah,
1 Kings 21:8, 1 Kings 21:10, 1 Kings 21:8, 1 Kings 21:10, Psalms 52:2
15writing in the letter: “Place Uriah opposite the warfare, where the battle is the strongest, and then abandon him, so that, having been wounded, he may die.”
2 Samuel 12:9, 2 Samuel 12:9, 1 Samuel 18:17, 1 Samuel 18:17, 2 Samuel 11:17
16And so, when Joab was besieging the city, he positioned Uriah in the place where he knew the strongest men to be.
2 Kings 10:6, 1 Kings 2:31, 1 Kings 2:34, Hosea 5:11, 2 Samuel 3:27
17And the men, departing from the city, made war against Joab. And some of the people among the servants of David fell, and Uriah the Hittite also died.
2 Samuel 12:9, Psalms 51:14, 2 Samuel 12:9, Psalms 51:14
18And so, Joab sent and reported to David every word about the battle.
19And he instructed the messenger, saying: “When you have completed all the words about the war to the king,
20if you see him to be angry, and if he says: ‘Why did you draw near to the wall in order to fight? Are you ignorant that many darts are thrown from above the wall?
21Who struck down Abimelech, the son of Jerubbaal? Did not a woman throw a fragment of a millstone upon him from the wall, and so kill him at Thebez? Why did you approach beside the wall?’ then you shall say: ‘Your servant Uriah, the Hittite, also lies dead.’ ”
Judges 7:1, Judges 9:50, Judges 9:54, Judges 7:1, Judges 9:50
22Therefore, the messenger departed. And he went and described to David all that Joab had instructed him.
23And the messenger said to David: “The men prevailed against us, and they went out to us in the field. Then we pursued them, making an assault, even to the gate of the city.
24And the archers directed their arrows at your servants from the wall above. And some of the king’s servants died, and then also your servant Uriah the Hittite died.”
25And David said to the messenger: “You shall say these things to Joab: ‘Do not let this matter dishearten you. For varied are the events of war. Now this one, and now that one, is consumed by the sword. Encourage your warriors against the city and exhort them, so that you may destroy it.’ ”
1 Samuel 6:9, Ecclesiastes 9:1, Ecclesiastes 9:3, Joshua 7:8, Joshua 7:9
26Then the wife of Uriah heard that her husband Uriah had died, and she mourned for him.
Genesis 27:41, 2 Samuel 14:2, 2 Samuel 3:31, Genesis 27:41, 2 Samuel 14:2
27But when the lamentation was completed, David sent and brought her into his house, and she became his wife, and she bore a son to him. And this word, which David had done, was displeasing in the sight of the Lord.
Psalms 51:4, Psalms 51:5, 2 Samuel 12:9, Psalms 51:4, Psalms 51:5
