New Testament

2 Samuel 11:5-9 New King James Version (NKJV)

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.

7. When Uriah had come to him, David asked how Joab was doing, and how the people were doing, and how the war prospered.

8. And David said to Uriah, “Go down to your house and wash your feet.” So Uriah departed from the king’s house, and a gift of food from the king followed him.

9. But Uriah slept at the door of the king’s house with all the servants of his lord, and did not go down to his house.
