2 Samuel 11:16Young's Literal Translation 1898And it cometh to pass in Joab's watching of the city, that he appointeth Uriah unto the place where he knew that valiant men are ; See the chapter |
`And also, thou hast known that which he did to me--Joab son of Zeruiah--that which he did to two heads of the hosts of Israel, to Abner son of Ner, and to Amasa son of Jether--that he slayeth them, and maketh the blood of war in peace, and putteth the blood of war in his girdle, that is on his loins, and in his sandals that are on his feet;
And he writeth unto them a letter a second time, saying, `If ye are for me, and to my voice are hearkening, take the heads of the men--the sons of your lord, and come unto me about this time to-morrow, to Jezreel;' and the sons of the king are seventy men, with the great ones of the city those bringing them up.
