2 Samuel 11:19 Context
17And the men of the city went out, and fought with Ioab: and there fell some of the people of the seruants of Dauid, and Uriah the Hittite died also. 18¶ Then Ioab sent, and tolde Dauid all the things concerning the warre: 19And charged the messenger, saying, When thou hast made an ende of telling the matters of the warre vnto the King; 20And if so be that the kings wrath arise, and hee say vnto thee, Wherefore approched ye so nigh vnto the city when yee did fight? Knew yee not that they would shoot from the wall? 21Who smote Abimelech the sonne of Ierubesheth? Did not a woman cast a piece of a milstone vpon him from the wall, that he died in Thebez? why went ye nigh the wall? Then say thou, Thy seruant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.
