2 Samuel 12:26-28

New Century Version

David Captures Rabbah

²⁶ Joab fought against Rabbah, a royal city of the Ammonites, and he was about to capture it. ²⁷ Joab sent messengers to David and said, “I have fought against Rabbah and have captured its water supply. ²⁸ Now bring the other soldiers together and attack this city. Capture it before I capture it myself and it is called by my name!”
