So Uriah left the king’s house, and a gift from the king was sent after him. 9 But 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. 10 When 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?' 11 Uriah 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!' 12 Then 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. 13 David invited Uriah to eat and drink with him, and David made him drunk. In the evening, Uriah went out to lie on his mat among his master's servants but did not go home. 14 The next morning, David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it with Uriah. 15 In the letter, David wrote, 'Put Uriah at the front where the fighting is fiercest. Then withdraw from him so he will be struck down and killed.'
