*
And David sent messengers mal #
ak #,
and took her ;
and she came in unto him ,
and he lay with her ;
for she was purified from her uncleanness tum #
ah #:
and she returned unto her house .
*
And the woman conceived ,
and sent and told David ,
and said ,
I am with child .
*
And David sent to Joab Yow #
ab #,
saying ,
Send me Uriah the Hittite .
And Joab sent Uriah to David .
*
And when Uriah was come unto him ,
David demanded of him how Joab did ,
and how the people did ,
and how the war prospered .
*
And David said to Uriah ,
Go down to thy house ,
and wash thy feet .
And Uriah departed out of the kings house ,
and there followed him a mess of meat from the king .
*
But Uriah slept at the door of the kings house with all the servants of his lord ,
and went not down to his house .
*
And when they had told David ,
saying ,
Uriah went not down unto his house ,
David said unto Uriah ,
Camest thou not from thy journey ?
why then didst thou not go down unto thine house ?
*
And Uriah said unto David ,
The ark ,
and Israel Yisra #
el #,
and Judah ,
abide in tents ;
and my lord Joab Yow #
ab #,
and the servants of my lord ,
are encamped in the open fields ;
shall I then go into mine house ,
to eat and to drink ,
and to lie with my wife ?
as thou livest ,
and as thy soul liveth ,
I will not do this thing .
*
And David said to Uriah ,
Tarry here to day also ,
and to morrow I will let thee depart .
So Uriah abode in Jerusalem that day ,
and the morrow .
*
And when David had called him ,
he did eat and drink before him ;
and he made him drunk :
and at even he went out to lie on his bed with the servants of his lord ,
but went not down to his house .
