And it came to pass, when Joab observed the city, that he assigned Uriah unto a place where he knew that valiant men were.

וַיְהִ֕י (וַ) va “and”וַיִּתֵּן֙ (וַ) va “and”

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.

וַיֵּ֨צְא֜וּ (וַ) va “and”וַיִּלָּחֲמ֣וּ (וַ) va “and”וַיִּפֹּ֥ל (וַ) va “and”וַיָּ֕מָת (וַ) va “and”

Then Joab sent and told David all the things concerning the war;

וַיִּשְׁלַ֖ח (וַ) va “and”וַיַּגֵּ֣ד (וַ) va “and”

And charged the messenger, saying, When thou hast made an end of telling the matters of the war unto the king,

וַיְצַ֥ו (וַ) va “and”

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?

וְהָיָ֗ה (וְ) ve. “and”וְאָמַ֣ר (וְ) ve. “and”

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.

וַיָּ֣מָת (וַ) va “and”וְאָ֣מַרְתָּ֔ (וְ) ve. “and”

So the messenger went, and came and showed David all that Joab had sent him for.

וַיֵּ֖לֶךְ (וַ) va “and”וַיָּבֹא֙ (וַ) va “and”וַיַּגֵּ֣ד (וַ) va “and”

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.

וַיֹּ֤אמֶר (וַ) va “and”וַיֵּצְא֥וּ (וַ) va “and”וַנִּהְיֶ֥ה (וַ) va. “and”

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.

וַיֹּר֨וּ (וַ) va “and”וַיָּמ֖וּתוּ (וַ) va “and”

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.

וַיֹּ֨אמֶר (וַ) va “and”

And when the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she mourned for her husband.

וַתִּשְׁמַע֙ (וַ) va. “and”וַתִּסְפֹּ֖ד (וַ) va. “and”

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.

And the LORD sent Nathan unto David. And he came unto him, and said unto him, There were two men in one city; the one rich, and the other poor.

וַיִּשְׁלַ֧ח (וַ) va “and”וַיָּבֹ֣א (וַ) va “and”וַיֹּ֤אמֶר (וַ) va “and”

But the poor man had nothing, save one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished up: and it grew up together with him, and with his children; it did eat of his own meat, and drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was unto him as a daughter.

וַיְחַיֶּ֕הָ (וַ) va “and”וַתִּגְדַּ֥ל (וַ) va. “and”וַתְּהִי־ (וַ) va. “and”

And there came a traveler unto the rich man, and he spared to take of his own flock and of his own herd, to dress for the wayfaring man that was come unto him; but took the poor man's lamb, and dressed it for the man that was come to him.

וַיָּ֣בֹא (וַ) va “and”וַיַּחְמֹ֗ל (וַ) va “and”וַיִּקַּ֗ח (וַ) va “and”וַֽיַּעֲשֶׂ֔הָ (וַֽ) va “and”

And David's anger was greatly kindled against the man; and he said to Nathan, As the LORD liveth, the man that hath done this thing shall surely die:

וַיִּֽחַר־ (וַ) va “and”וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ (וַ) va “and”

And Nathan said to David, Thou art the man. Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I anointed thee king over Israel, and I delivered thee out of the hand of Saul;

וַיֹּ֧אמֶר (וַ) va “and”

And I gave thee thy master's house, and thy master's wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that had been too little, I would moreover have given unto thee such and such things.

וָאֶתְּנָ֨ה (וָ) va. “and”וָאֶתְּנָ֣ה (וָ) va. “and”

Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thine house; because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife.

וַתִּקַּ֗ח (וַ) va. “and”

Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house, and I will take thy wives before thine eyes, and give them unto thy neighbor, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.

וְלָקַחְתִּ֤י (וְ) ve. “and”וְנָתַתִּ֖י (וְ) ve. “and”וְשָׁכַב֙ (וְ) ve. “and”

And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And Nathan said unto David, The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die.

וַיֹּ֤אמֶר (וַ) va “and”וַיֹּ֨אמֶר (וַ) va “and”

And Nathan departed unto his house. And the LORD struck the child that Uriah's wife bare unto David, and it was very sick.

וַיֵּ֥לֶךְ (וַ) va “and”וַיִּגֹּ֣ף (וַ) va “and”וַיֵּאָנַֽשׁ׃ (וַ) va “and”

David therefore besought God for the child; and David fasted, and went in, and lay all night upon the earth.

וַיְבַקֵּ֥שׁ (וַ) va “and”וַיָּ֤צָם (וַ) va “and”וּבָ֥א (וּ) u. “and”וְלָ֖ן (וְ) ve. “and”וְשָׁכַ֥ב (וְ) ve. “and”

And the elders of his house arose, and went to him, to raise him up from the earth: but he would not, neither did he eat bread with them.

וַיָּקֻ֜מוּ (וַ) va “and”

And it came to pass on the seventh day, that the child died. And the servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead: for they said, Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spake unto him, and he would not hearken unto our voice: how will he then vex himself, if we tell him that the child is dead?

וַיְהִ֛י (וַ) va “and”וַיָּ֣מָת (וַ) va “and”וַיִּֽרְאוּ֩ (וַ) va “and”וְעָשָׂ֥ה (וְ) ve. “and”
