New Testament

2 Samuel 11:2-6 New King James Version (NKJV)

2. Then it happened one evening that David arose from his bed and walked on the roof of the king’s house. And from the roof he saw a woman bathing, and the woman was very beautiful to behold.

3. So David sent and inquired about the woman. And someone said, “Is this not Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?”

4. Then David sent messengers, and took her; and she came to him, and he lay with her, for she was cleansed from her impurity; and she returned to her house.

5. And the woman conceived; so she sent and told David, and said, “I am with child.”

6. Then David sent to Joab, saying, “Send me Uriah the Hittite.” And Joab sent Uriah to David.
