11:16

And it came to pass, when Joab
<03097>

observed
<08104> (8800)

the city
<05892>_,

that he assigned
<05414> (8799)

Uriah
<0223>

unto a place
<04725>

where he knew
<03045> (8804)

that valiant
<02428>

men
<0582>

[were].

11:17

And the men
<0582>

of the city
<05892>

went out
<03318> (8799)_,

and fought
<03898> (8735)

with Joab
<03097>_:

and there fell
<05307> (8799)

[some] of the people
<05971>

of the servants
<05650>

of David
<01732>_;

and Uriah
<0223>

the Hittite
<02850>

died
<04191> (8799)

also.

11:18

Then Joab
<03097>

sent
<07971> (8799)

and told
<05046> (8686)

David
<01732>

all the things
<01697>

concerning the war
<04421>_;

11:19

And charged
<06680> (8762)

the messenger
<04397>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

When thou hast made an end
<03615> (8763)

of telling
<01696> (8763)

the matters
<01697>

of the war
<04421>

unto the king
<04428>_,

11:20

And if so be that the king's
<04428>

wrath
<02534>

arise
<05927> (8799)_,

and he say
<0559> (8804)

unto thee, Wherefore approached ye so nigh
<05066> (8738)

unto the city
<05892>

when ye did fight
<03898> (8736)_?

knew
<03045> (8804)

ye not that they would shoot
<03384> (8686)

from the wall
<02346>_?

11:21

Who smote
<05221> (8689)

Abimelech
<040>

the son
<01121>

of Jerubbesheth
<03380>_?

did not a woman
<0802>

cast
<07993> (8689)

a piece
<06400>

of a millstone
<07393>

upon him from the wall
<02346>_,

that he died
<04191> (8799)

in Thebez
<08405>_?

why went ye nigh
<05066> (8738)

the wall
<02346>_?

then say
<0559> (8804)

thou, Thy servant
<05650>

Uriah
<0223>

the Hittite
<02850>

is dead
<04191> (8804)

also. {Jerubbesheth: also called, Jerubbaal}

11:22

So the messenger
<04397>

went
<03212> (8799)_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

and shewed
<05046> (8686)

David
<01732>

all that Joab
<03097>

had sent
<07971> (8804)

him for.

11:23

And the messenger
<04397>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto David
<01732>_,

Surely the men
<0582>

prevailed
<01396> (8804)

against us, and came out
<03318> (8799)

unto us into the field
<07704>_,

and we were upon them even unto the entering
<06607>

of the gate
<08179>_.

11:24

And the shooters
<03384> (8688)

shot
<03384> (8686)

from off the wall
<02346>

upon thy servants
<05650>_;

and [some] of the king's
<04428>

servants
<05650>

be dead
<04191> (8799)_,

and thy servant
<05650>

Uriah
<0223>

the Hittite
<02850>

is dead
<04191> (8804)

also.

11:25

Then David
<01732>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto the messenger
<04397>_,

Thus shalt thou say
<0559> (8799)

unto Joab
<03097>_,

Let not this thing
<01697>

displease
<03415> (8799) <05869>

thee, for the sword
<02719>

devoureth
<0398> (8799)

one as well as another
<02090>_:

make thy battle
<04421>

more strong
<02388> (8685)

against the city
<05892>_,

and overthrow
<02040> (8798)

it: and encourage
<02388> (8761)

thou him. {displease...: Heb. be evil in thine eyes} {one...: Heb. so and such}

<05892>_,

and take
<03920> (8798)

it: lest I take
<03920> (8799)

<05892>_,
