2 Samuel 11:16King James 3 - The Literal TraslationAnd it happened, as Joab watched the city, that he sent Uriah to the place where he knew would be men of strength. See the chapter |
And also, you know that which Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, that which he did to the two army commanders of Israel, to Abner the son of Ner, and to Amasa the son of Jether, that he murdered them, and shed the blood of war in peace, and put the blood of war on his girdle that was on his loins and in his sandals that were on his feet;
And he wrote a letter to them a second time, saying, If you are for me, and are listening to my voice, take the heads of the men, the sons of your lord, and come to me about this time tomorrow, to Jezreel. And the king’s sons, seventy persons, were with the great men of the city, who caused them to grow up.
