2 Samuel 11:22-24

International Standard Version

²² So the messenger left Joab, set out for Jerusalem,^[a] and disclosed to David everything that Joab had sent him to say. ²³ The messenger told David, “The men surprised us and attacked us in the field, but we drove them back to the entrance of the city gate. ²⁴ Then the archers shot at your servants from the wall. Some of the king’s staff members are dead, and your servant Uriah the Hittite has died as well.”
