2Now one evening, David got up from his bed, and while he was walking on the roof of the king's house, he saw from there a woman bathing; and the woman was very beautiful.
3And David sent to get knowledge who the woman was. And one said, Is this not Bath-sheba, the daughter of Eliam and wife of Uriah the Hittite?
4And David sent and took her; and she came to him, and he took her to his bed: (for she had been made clean;) then she went back to her house.
5And the woman became with child; and she sent word to David that she was with child.
6And David sent to Joab saying, Send Uriah the Hittite to me. And Joab sent Uriah to David.
7And when Uriah came to him, David put questions to him about how Joab and the people were, and how the war was going.
8And David said to Uriah, Go down to your house and let your feet be washed. And Uriah went away from the king's house, and an offering from the king was sent after him.
