2 Samuel 11:2-4

Christian Standard Bible

² One evening David got up from his bed and strolled around on the roof of the palace. From the roof he saw a woman bathing—a very beautiful woman. ³ So David sent someone to inquire about her, and he said, “Isn’t this Bathsheba,^(A) daughter of Eliam and wife of Uriah^(B) the Hethite?” ^[a]

⁴ David sent messengers to get her, and when she came to him, he slept with her. Now she had just been purifying herself from her uncleanness.^(C) Afterward, she returned home.
