    1In the spring, at the time when kings go out to war, David sent Joab along with his servants and all of Israel. They destroyed the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah, but David stayed in Jerusalem.

    2One evening, David got up from his bed and walked around on the roof of the king’s house. From the roof, he saw a woman bathing, and the woman was very beautiful.

    3David sent someone to inquire about the woman, and it was reported to him, 'Isn’t this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam and the wife of Uriah the Hittite?'

    4So David sent messengers, took her, and she came to him. He slept with her while she was purifying herself from her uncleanness. Then she returned to her house.

    5The woman conceived and sent a message to David, saying, 'I am pregnant.'

    6So David sent word to Joab, 'Send me Uriah the Hittite,' and Joab sent Uriah to David.

    7When Uriah came to him, David asked about Joab’s well-being, the well-being of the troops, and the condition of the war.

    8Then David said to Uriah, 'Go down to your house and wash your feet.' So Uriah left the king’s house, and a gift from the king was sent after him.

    9But Uriah slept at the entrance of the king’s house with all the servants of his lord and did not go down to his house.

    10When they told David, 'Uriah did not go down to his house,' David said to Uriah, 'Haven’t you just come from a journey? Why didn’t you go home?'

    11Uriah said to David, 'The Ark, Israel, and Judah are staying in tents, and my lord Joab and the king’s servants are camped in the open field. How can I go to my house to eat and drink and lie with my wife? As surely as you live and as your soul lives, I will not do such a thing!'

    12Then David said to Uriah, 'Stay here one more day, and tomorrow I will send you back.' So Uriah stayed in Jerusalem that day and the next.

    26When Uriah’s wife heard that her husband was dead, she mourned for him.
