2 Samuel 11:22-24

Good News Translation

²² So the messenger went to David and told him what Joab had commanded him to say. ²³ He said, “Our enemies were stronger than we were and came out of the city to fight us in the open, but we drove them back to the city gate. ²⁴ Then they shot arrows at us from the wall, and some of Your Majesty's officers were killed; your officer Uriah was also killed.”
