2 Samuel - Chapter: 11


11:1	And it came to pass, after the year was expired, at the time when kings go forth to battle, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried still at Jerusalem.
11:2	And it came to pass in an eveningtide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king's house: and from the roof he saw a woman washing herself; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon.
11:3	And David sent and enquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?
11:4	And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house.
11:5	And the woman conceived, and sent and told David, and said, I am with child.
11:6	And David sent to Joab, saying, Send me Uriah the Hittite. And Joab sent Uriah to David.
11:7	And when Uriah was come unto him, David demanded of him how Joab did, and how the people did, and how the war prospered.
11:8	And David said to Uriah, Go down to thy house, and wash thy feet. And Uriah departed out of the king's house, and there followed him a mess of meat from the king.
11:9	But Uriah slept at the door of the king's house with all the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.
11:10	And when they had told David, saying, Uriah went not down unto his house, David said unto Uriah, Camest thou not from thy journey? why then didst thou not go down unto thine house?
11:11	And Uriah said unto David, The ark, and Israel, and Judah, abide in tents; and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, are encamped in the open fields; shall I then go into mine house, to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife? as thou livest, and as thy soul liveth, I will not do this thing.
11:12	And David said to Uriah, Tarry here to day also, and to morrow I will let thee depart. So Uriah abode in Jerusalem that day, and the morrow.
11:13	And when David had called him, he did eat and drink before him; and he made him drunk: and at even he went out to lie on his bed with the servants of his lord, but went not down to his house.
11:14	And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriah.
11:15	And he wrote in the letter, saying, Set ye Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten, and die.
11:16	And it came to pass, when Joab observed the city, that he assigned Uriah unto a place where he knew that valiant men were.
11:17	And the men of the city went out, and fought with Joab: and there fell some of the people of the servants of David; and Uriah the Hittite died also.
11:18	Then Joab sent and told David all the things concerning the war;
11:19	And charged the messenger, saying, When thou hast made an end of telling the matters of the war unto the king,
11:20	And if so be that the king's wrath arise, and he say unto thee, Wherefore approached ye so nigh unto the city when ye did fight? knew ye not that they would shoot from the wall?
11:21	Who smote Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? did not a woman cast a piece of a millstone upon him from the wall, that he died in Thebez? why went ye nigh the wall? then say thou, Thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.
11:22	So the messenger went, and came and shewed David all that Joab had sent him for.
11:23	And the messenger said unto David, Surely the men prevailed against us, and came out unto us into the field, and we were upon them even unto the entering of the gate.
11:24	And the shooters shot from off the wall upon thy servants; and some of the king's servants be dead, and thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.
11:25	Then David said unto the messenger, Thus shalt thou say unto Joab, Let not this thing displease thee, for the sword devoureth one as well as another: make thy battle more strong against the city, and overthrow it: and encourage thou him.
11:26	And when the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she mourned for her husband.
11:27	And when the mourning was past, David sent and fetched her to his house, and she became his wife, and bare him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased the LORD.


11:1	ויהי לתשׁובת השׁנה לעת צאת המלאכים וישׁלח דוד את יואב ואת עבדיו עמו ואת כל ישׂראל וישׁחתו את בני עמון ויצרו על רבה ודוד יושׁב בירושׁלם׃
11:2	ויהי לעת הערב ויקם דוד מעל משׁכבו ויתהלך על גג בית המלך וירא אשׁה רחצת מעל הגג והאשׁה טובת מראה מאד׃
11:3	וישׁלח דוד וידרשׁ לאשׁה ויאמר הלוא זאת בת בע בת אליעם אשׁת אוריה החתי׃
11:4	וישׁלח דוד מלאכים ויקחה ותבוא אליו וישׁכב עמה והיא מתקדשׁת מטמאתה ותשׁב אל ביתה׃

11:8	ויאמר דוד לאוריה רד לביתך ורחץ רגליך ויצא אוריה מבית המלך ותצא אחריו משׂאת המלך׃
11:9	וישׁכב אוריה פתח בית המלך את כל עבדי אדניו ולא ירד אל ביתו׃
11:10	ויגדו לדוד לאמר לא ירד אוריה אל ביתו ויאמר דוד אל אוריה הלוא מדרך אתה בא מדוע לא ירדת אל ביתך׃
11:11	ויאמר אוריה אל דוד הארון וישׂראל ויהודה ישׁבים בסכות ואדני יואב ועבדי אדני על פני השׂדה חנים ואני אבוא אל ביתי לאכל ולשׁתות ולשׁכב עם אשׁתי חיך וחי נפשׁך אם אעשׂה את הדבר הזה׃
11:12	ויאמר דוד אל אוריה שׁב בזה גם היום ומחר אשׁלחך וישׁב אוריה בירושׁלם ביום ההוא וממחרת׃
11:13	ויקרא לו דוד ויאכל לפניו וישׁת וישׁכרהו ויצא בערב לשׁכב במשׁכבו עם עבדי אדניו ואל ביתו לא ירד׃
11:14	ויהי בבקר ויכתב דוד ספר אל יואב וישׁלח ביד אוריה׃
11:15	ויכתב בספר לאמר הבו את אוריה אל מול פני המלחמה החזקה ושׁבתם מאחריו ונכה ומת׃
11:16	ויהי בשׁמור יואב אל העיר ויתן את אוריה אל המקום אשׁר ידע כי אנשׁי חיל שׁם׃
11:17	ויצאו אנשׁי העיר וילחמו את יואב ויפל מן העם מעבדי דוד וימת גם אוריה החתי׃
11:18	וישׁלח יואב ויגד לדוד את כל דברי המלחמה׃
11:19	ויצו את המלאך לאמר ככלותך את כל דברי המלחמה לדבר אל המלך׃
11:20	והיה אם תעלה חמת המלך ואמר לך מדוע נגשׁתם אל העיר להלחם הלוא ידעתם את אשׁר ירו מעל החומה׃
11:21	מי הכה את אבימלך בן ירבשׁת הלוא אשׁה השׁליכה עליו פלח רכב מעל החומה וימת בתבץ למה נגשׁתם אל החומה ואמרת גם עבדך אוריה החתי מת׃
11:22	וילך המלאך ויבא ויגד לדוד את כל אשׁר שׁלחו יואב׃
11:23	ויאמר המלאך אל דוד כי גברו עלינו האנשׁים ויצאו אלינו השׂדה ונהיה עליהם עד פתח השׁער׃
11:24	ויראו המוראים אל עבדך מעל החומה וימותו מעבדי המלך וגם עבדך אוריה החתי מת׃
11:25	ויאמר דוד אל המלאך כה תאמר אל יואב אל ירע בעיניך את הדבר הזה כי כזה וכזה תאכל החרב החזק מלחמתך אל העיר והרסה וחזקהו׃
11:26	ותשׁמע אשׁת אוריה כי מת אוריה אישׁה ותספד על בעלה׃
11:27	ויעבר האבל וישׁלח דוד ויאספה אל ביתו ותהי לו לאשׁה ותלד לו בן וירע הדבר אשׁר עשׂה דוד בעיני יהוה׃


11:1	And it cometh to pass, at the revolution of the year -- at the time of the going out of the messengers -- that David sendeth Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel, and they destroy the Bene-Ammon, and lay siege against Rabbah. And David is dwelling in Jerusalem,
11:2	and it cometh to pass, at evening-time, that David riseth from off his couch, and walketh up and down on the roof of the king's house, and seeth from the roof a woman bathing, and the woman `is' of very good appearance,
11:3	and David sendeth and inquireth about the woman, and saith, `Is not this Bath-Sheba, daughter of Eliam, wife of Uriah the Hittite?'
11:4	And David sendeth messengers, and taketh her, and she cometh unto him, and he lieth with her -- and she is purifying herself from her uncleanness -- and she turneth back unto her house;
11:5	and the woman conceiveth, and sendeth, and declareth to David, and saith, `I `am' conceiving.'
11:6	And David sendeth unto Joab, `Send unto me Uriah the Hittite,' and Joab sendeth Uriah unto David;
11:7	and Uriah cometh unto him, and David asketh of the prosperity of Joab, and of the prosperity of the people, and of the prosperity of the war.
11:8	And David saith to Uriah, `Go down to thy house, and wash thy feet;' and Uriah goeth out of the king's house, and there goeth out after him a gift from the king,
11:9	and Uriah lieth down at the opening of the king's house, with all the servants of his lord, and hath not gone down unto his house.
11:10	And they declare to David, saying, `Uriah hath not gone down unto his house;' and David saith unto Uriah, `Hast thou not come from a journey? wherefore hast thou not gone down unto thy house?'
11:11	And Uriah saith unto David, `The ark, and Israel, and Judah, are abiding in booths, and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, on the face of the field are encamping; and I -- I go in unto my house to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife! -- thy life, and the life of thy soul -- if I do this thing.'
11:12	And David saith unto Uriah, `Abide in this `place' also to-day, and to-morrow I send thee away;' and Uriah abideth in Jerusalem, on that day, and on the morrow,
11:13	and David calleth for him, and he eateth before him, and drinketh, and he causeth him to drink, and he goeth out in the evening to lie on his couch with the servants of his lord, and unto his house he hath not gone down.
11:14	And it cometh to pass in the morning, that David writeth a letter unto Joab, and sendeth by the hand of Uriah;
11:15	and he writeth in the letter, saying, `Place ye Uriah over-against the front of the severest battle, and ye have turned back from after him, and he hath been smitten, and hath died.'
11:16	And it cometh to pass in Joab's watching of the city, that he appointeth Uriah unto the place where he knew that valiant men `are';
11:17	and the men of the city go out and fight with Joab, and there fall `some' of the people, of the servants of David; and there dieth also Uriah the Hittite.
11:18	And Joab sendeth and declareth to David all the matters of the war,
11:19	and commandeth the messenger, saying, `At thy finishing all the matters of the war to speak unto the king,
11:20	then, it hath been, if the king's fury ascend, and he hath said to thee, Wherefore did ye draw nigh unto the city to fight? did ye not know that they shoot from off the wall?
11:21	Who smote Abimelech son of Jerubbesheth? did not a woman cast on him a piece of a rider from the wall, and he dieth in Thebez? why drew ye nigh unto the wall? that thou hast said, Also thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead.'
11:22	And the messenger goeth, and cometh in, and declareth to David all that with which Joab sent him,
11:23	and the messenger saith unto David, `Surely the men have been mighty against us, and come out unto us into the field, and we are upon them unto the opening of the gate,
11:24	and those shooting shoot at thy servants from off the wall, and `some' of the servants of the king are dead, and also, thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead.
11:25	And David saith unto the messenger, `Thus dost thou say unto Joab, Let not this thing be evil in thine eyes; for thus and thus doth the sword devour; strengthen thy warfare against the city, and throw it down -- and strengthen thou him.'
11:26	And the wife of Uriah heareth that Uriah her husband `is' dead, and lamenteth for her lord;
11:27	and the mourning passeth by, and David sendeth and gathereth her unto his house, and she is to him for a wife, and beareth to him a son; and the thing which David hath done is evil in the eyes of Jehovah.
