2 Samuel 11:13-15

Revised Geneva Translation

¹³ Then David called him. And he ate and drank before him. And he made himself drunk. And in the evening, he went out to lie on his couch with the servants of his lord but did not go down to his house.

¹⁴ And in the morning, David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it by the hand of Uriah.

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.”
