2 Samuel 12:26-28

Revised Geneva Translation

²⁶ Then Joab fought against Rabbah, of the children of Ammon, and took the city of the kingdom.

²⁷ Therefore, Joab sent messengers to David, saying, “I have fought against Rabbah, and have taken the city of waters.

²⁸ “Now, therefore, gather the rest of the people together and besiege the city, so that you may take it, lest the victory be attributed to me.”
