2 Samuel 11:14-16

Wycliffe Bible

¹⁴ Therefore when the morrowtide was made, David wrote [an] epistle to Joab, and sent (it) by the hand of Uriah,

¹⁵ and wrote in the epistle, Put ye Uriah even against the battle, where the battle is strongest, that is, where the adversaries be (the) strong(est), and forsake ye him, that he be smitten and perish (and leave ye him there, so that he can be struck down and die).

¹⁶ Therefore when Joab besieged the city, he setted Uriah in the place where he knew that (the) strongest men were.
