2 Samuel 11:15-17

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁵ Writing in the letter: Set ye Urias in the front of the battle, where the fight is strongest: and leave ye him, that he may be wounded and die.

¹⁶ Wherefore as Joab was besieging the city, he put Urias in the place where he knew the bravest men were.

¹⁷ And the men coming out of the city, fought against Joab, and there fell some of the people of the servants of David, and Urias the Hethite was killed also.
