2 Samuel 11:12-14

Expanded Bible

¹² David said to Uriah, “Stay here today. Tomorrow I’ll send you back to the battle.” So Uriah stayed in Jerusalem that day and the next. ¹³ Then David called Uriah to come to see him, so Uriah ate and drank with David. David made Uriah drunk, but he still did not go home. That evening Uriah again slept with the king’s ·officers [guard; ^Lservants].

¹⁴ The next morning David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it by Uriah.
