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.
