14 And it came to pass in the morning that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriah.
15 And he wrote in the letter, saying, “Set ye Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten and die.”
16 And it came to pass, when Joab observed the city, that he assigned Uriah unto a place where he knew that valiant men were.
