So Uriah{H223} abode{H3427}{(H8799)} in Jerusalem{H3389} that day{H3117}, and the morrow{H4283}. 13 And when David{H1732} had called{H7121}{(H8799)} him, he did eat{H398}{(H8799)} and drink{H8354}{(H8799)} before{H6440} him; and he made him drunk{H7937}{(H8762)}: and at even{H6153} he went out{H3318}{(H8799)} to lie{H7901}{(H8800)} on his bed{H4904} with the servants{H5650} of his lord{H113}, but went not down{H3381}{(H8804)} to his house{H1004}. 14 And it came to pass in the morning{H1242}, that David{H1732} wrote{H3789}{(H8799)} a letter{H5612} to Joab{H3097}, and sent{H7971}{(H8799)} it by the hand{H3027} of Uriah{H223}. 15 And he wrote{H3789}{(H8799)} in the letter{H5612}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Set{H3051}{(H8798)} ye Uriah{H223} in the forefront{H6440}{H4136} of the hottest{H2389} battle{H4421}, and retire{H7725}{(H8804)} ye from him{H310}, that he may be smitten{H5221}{(H8738)}, and die{H4191}{(H8804)}. 16 And it came to pass, when Joab{H3097} observed{H8104}{(H8800)} the city{H5892}, that he assigned{H5414}{(H8799)} Uriah{H223} unto a place{H4725} where he knew{H3045}{(H8804)} that valiant{H2428} men{H582} were. 17 And the men{H582} of the city{H5892} went out{H3318}{(H8799)}, and fought{H3898}{(H8735)} with Joab{H3097}: and there fell{H5307}{(H8799)} some of the people{H5971} of the servants{H5650} of David{H1732}; and Uriah{H223} the Hittite{H2850} died{H4191}{(H8799)} also. 18 Then Joab{H3097} sent{H7971}{(H8799)} and told{H5046}{(H8686)} David{H1732} all the things{H1697} concerning the war{H4421}; 19 And charged{H6680}{(H8762)} the messenger{H4397}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, When thou hast made an end{H3615}{(H8763)} of telling{H1696}{(H8763)} the matters{H1697} of the war{H4421} unto the king{H4428}, 20 And if so be that the king's{H4428} wrath{H2534} arise{H5927}{(H8799)}, and he say{H559}{(H8804)} unto thee, Wherefore approached ye so nigh{H5066}{(H8738)} unto the city{H5892} when ye did fight{H3898}{(H8736)}? knew{H3045}{(H8804)} ye not that they would shoot{H3384}{(H8686)} from the wall{H2346}? 21 Who smote{H5221}{(H8689)} Abimelech{H40} the son{H1121} of Jerubbesheth{H3380}? did not a woman{H802} cast{H7993}{(H8689)} a piece{H6400} of a millstone{H7393} upon him from the wall{H2346}, that he died{H4191}{(H8799)} in Thebez{H8405}? why went ye nigh{H5066}{(H8738)} the wall{H2346}? then say{H559}{(H8804)} thou, Thy servant{H5650} Uriah{H223} the Hittite{H2850} is dead{H4191}{(H8804)} also. 22 So the messenger{H4397} went{H3212}{(H8799)}, and came{H935}{(H8799)} and shewed{H5046}{(H8686)} David{H1732} all that Joab{H3097} had sent{H7971}{(H8804)} him for. 23 And the messenger{H4397} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto David{H1732}, Surely the men{H582} prevailed{H1396}{(H8804)} against us, and came out{H3318}{(H8799)} unto us into the field{H7704}, and we were upon them even unto the entering{H6607} of the gate{H8179}. 24 And the shooters{H3384}{(H8688)} shot{H3384}{(H8686)} from off the wall{H2346} upon thy servants{H5650}; and some of the king's{H4428} servants{H5650} be dead{H4191}{(H8799)}, and thy servant{H5650} Uriah{H223} the Hittite{H2850} is dead{H4191}{(H8804)} also. 25 Then David{H1732} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto the messenger{H4397}, Thus shalt thou say{H559}{(H8799)} unto Joab{H3097}, Let not this thing{H1697} displease{H3415}{(H8799)}{H5869} thee, for the sword{H2719} devoureth{H398}{(H8799)} one as well as another{H2090}: make thy battle{H4421} more strong{H2388}{(H8685)} against the city{H5892}, and overthrow{H2040}{(H8798)} it: and encourage{H2388}{(H8761)} thou him. 26 And when the wife{H802} of Uriah{H223} heard{H8085}{(H8799)} that Uriah{H223} her husband{H376} was dead{H4191}{(H8804)}, she mourned{H5594}{(H8799)} for her husband{H1167}. 27 And when the mourning{H60} was past{H5674}{(H8799)}, David{H1732} sent{H7971}{(H8799)} and fetched{H622}{(H8799)} her to his house{H1004}, and she became his wife{H802}, and bare{H3205}{(H8799)} him a son{H1121}.

- 2 Chr 33:9-9 : 9 So Manasseh{H4519} made{H8582} Judah{H3063} and the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Jerusalem{H3389} to err{H8582}{(H8686)}, and to do{H6213}{(H8800)} worse{H7451} than the heathen{H1471}, whom the LORD{H3068} had destroyed{H8045}{(H8689)} before{H6440} the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478}. 10 And the LORD{H3068} spake{H1696}{(H8762)} to Manasseh{H4519}, and to his people{H5971}: but they would not hearken{H7181}{(H8689)}. 11 Wherefore the LORD{H3068} brought{H935}{(H8686)} upon them the captains of{H8269} the host of{H6635} the king{H4428} of Assyria{H804}, which took{H3920}{(H8799)} Manasseh{H4519} among the thorns{H2336}, and bound him{H631}{(H8799)} with fetters{H5178}, and carried{H3212}{(H8686)} him to Babylon{H894}. 12 And when he was in affliction{H6887}{(H8687)}, he besought{H2470}{(H8765)} the LORD{H3068} his God{H430}, and humbled{H3665}{(H8735)} himself greatly{H3966} before{H6440} the God{H430} of his fathers{H1}, 13 And prayed{H6419}{(H8691)} unto him: and he was intreated{H6279}{(H8735)} of him, and heard{H8085}{(H8799)} his supplication{H8467}, and brought him again{H7725}{(H8686)} to Jerusalem{H3389} into his kingdom{H4438}. Then Manasseh{H4519} knew{H3045}{(H8799)} that the LORD{H3068} he was God{H430}.
- Ps 73:5-9 : 5 They are not in trouble{H5999} as other men{H582}; neither are they plagued{H5060}{H8792)} like{H5973} other men{H120}. 6 Therefore pride{H1346} compasseth them about as a chain{H6059}{H8804)}; violence{H2555} covereth{H5848}{H8799)} them as a garment{H7897}. 7 Their eyes{H5869} stand out{H3318}{H8804)} with fatness{H2459}: they have more{H5674}{H8804)} than heart{H3824} could wish{H4906}. 8 They are corrupt{H4167}{H8686)}, and speak{H1696}{H8762)} wickedly{H7451} concerning oppression{H6233}: they speak{H1696}{H8762)} loftily{H4791}. 9 They set{H8371}{H8804)} their mouth{H6310} against the heavens{H8064}, and their tongue{H3956} walketh{H1980}{H8799)} through the earth{H776}. 10 Therefore his people{H5971} return{H7725}{H8799)}{H8675)}{H7725}{H8686)} hither{H1988}: and waters{H4325} of a full{H4392} cup are wrung out{H4680}{H8735)} to them. 11 And they say{H559}{H8804)}, How doth God{H410} know{H3045}{H8804)}? and is there{H3426} knowledge{H1844} in the most High{H5945}? 12 Behold, these are the ungodly{H7563}, who prosper{H7961} in the world{H5769}; they increase{H7685}{H8689)} in riches{H2428}. 13 Verily I have cleansed{H2135}{H8765)} my heart{H3824} in vain{H7385}, and washed{H7364}{H8799)} my hands{H3709} in innocency{H5356}. 14 For all the day{H3117} long have I been plagued{H5060}{H8803)}, and chastened{H8433} every morning{H1242}. 15 If I say{H559}{H8804)}, I will speak{H5608}{H8762)} thus{H3644}; behold, I should offend{H898}{H8804)} against the generation{H1755} of thy children{H1121}. 16 When I thought{H2803}{H8762)} to know{H3045}{H8800)} this, it was too painful{H5999} for me{H5869}; 17 Until I went{H935}{H8799)} into the sanctuary{H4720} of God{H410}; then understood{H995}{H8799)} I their end{H319}. 18 Surely thou didst set{H7896}{H8799)} them in slippery places{H2513}: thou castedst them down{H5307}{H8689)} into destruction{H4876}. 19 How are they brought into desolation{H8047}, as in a moment{H7281}! they are utterly{H5486}{H8804)} consumed{H8552}{H8804)} with terrors{H1091}. 20 As a dream{H2472} when one awaketh{H6974}{H8687)}; so, O Lord{H136}, when thou awakest{H5782}, thou shalt despise{H959}{H8799)} their image{H6754}. 21 Thus my heart{H3824} was grieved{H2556}{H8691)}, and I was pricked{H8150}{H8709)} in my reins{H3629}. 22 So foolish{H1198} was I, and ignorant{H3045}{H8799)}: I was as a beast{H929} before thee. 23 Nevertheless I am continually{H8548} with thee: thou hast holden{H270}{H8804)} me by my right{H3225} hand{H3027}. 24 Thou shalt guide{H5148}{H8686)} me with thy counsel{H6098}, and afterward{H310} receive{H3947}{H8799)} me to glory{H3519}. 25 Whom have I in heaven{H8064} but thee? and there is none upon earth{H776} that I desire{H2654}{H8804)} beside thee. 26 My flesh{H7607} and my heart{H3824} faileth{H3615}{H8804)}: but God{H430} is the strength{H6697} of my heart{H3824}, and my portion{H2506} for ever{H5769}. 27 For, lo, they that are far{H7369} from thee shall perish{H6}{H8799)}: thou hast destroyed{H6789}{H8689)} all them that go a whoring{H2181}{H8802)} from thee. 28 But{H589} it is good{H2896} for me to draw near{H7132} to God{H430}: I have put{H7896}{H8804)} my trust{H4268} in the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}, that I may declare{H5608}{H8763)} all thy works{H4399}.
