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.
9But Uriah took his rest at the door of the king's house, with all the servants of his lord, and did not go down to his house.
10And when word was given to David that Uriah had not gone down to his house, David said to Uriah, Have you not come from a journey? why did you not go down to your house?
11And Uriah said to David, Israel and Judah with the ark are living in tents, and my lord Joab and the other servants of my lord are sleeping in the open field; and am I to go to my house and take food and drink, and go to bed with my wife? By the living Lord, and by the life of your soul, I will not do such a thing.
