3. David sent someone and inquired about the woman. The report came back: "Isn’t this Eliam’s daughter Bathsheba, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?"
4. So David sent messengers to get her. When she came to him, he had sex with her. (Now she had been purifying herself after her monthly period.) Then she returned home.
5. The woman conceived and sent word to David."I’m pregnant," she said.
6. Then David sent a message to Joab: "Send me Uriah the Hittite." So Joab sent Uriah to David.
7. When Uriah came to him, David asked about the welfare of Joab and the army and how the battle was going.
8. Then David told Uriah, "Go down to your house and wash your feet."Uriah left the palace, and a gift from the king was sent after him.
