2 Samuel 11:15-17

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁵ And he wrote in the letter, Put Uriah in the front line of the heaviest fighting and withdraw from him, that he may be struck down and die.

¹⁶ So when Joab was besieging the city, he assigned Uriah opposite where he knew the enemy’s most valiant men were.

¹⁷ And the men of the city came out and fought with Joab, and some of the servants of David fell. Uriah the Hittite died also.
