14 The next morning David (beloved) wrote a letter to Joab (YHWH is father) and sent it with Uriah (YHWH is my light).

15 In the letter he wrote: “Put Uriah (YHWH is my light) at the front of the fiercest battle; then withdraw from him, so that he may be struck down and killed.”

16 So as Joab (YHWH is father) besieged the city, he assigned Uriah (YHWH is my light) to a place where he knew the strongest enemy soldiers were.

17 And when the men of the city came out and fought against Joab (YHWH is father), some of David’s (beloved) servants fell, and Uriah (YHWH is my light) the Hittite also died.
