2 One evening, David got up from his bed. He walked around on the roof of his palace.[a] From the roof he saw a woman who was washing herself. She was very beautiful. 3 David sent a servant to ask who she was. The servant told him, ‘She is Eliam's daughter, Bathsheba. She is the wife of Uriah the Hittite.’
4 Then David sent some servants to bring Bathsheba to him. She came to him and he slept with her. (She had just made herself clean from her monthly blood loss.) Then she returned to her home.
