2 Samuel 11:15-17

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁵ And he wrote this in the letter: “Put Uriah at the front of the fiercest battle, and retreat from him, so that he may be stricken and die.”

¹⁶ So when Joab besieged the city, he assigned Uriah to a place where he knew that strong men were.

¹⁷ And the men of the city came out and fought with Joab. And people of the servants of David fell there. And Uriah the Hittite also died.
