2 Samuel 11:1-4

1And it came to pass, at the returnH8666 of the yearH8141, at the timeH6256 when kingsH4428 goH3318 forthH3318, that DavidH1732 sentH7971 JoabH3097, and his servantsH5650 with him, and all IsraelH3478; and they laid waste the [land of the] children of AmmonH5983, and besieged RabbahH7237. But DavidH1732 abode at JerusalemH3389.

2And it came to pass at eveningH6153 timeH6256 that DavidH1732 aroseH6965 from off his couch, and walkedH1980 upon the roofH1406 of the king's houseH1004; and from the roofH1406 he sawH7200 a womanH802 bathingH7364, and the womanH802 wasH1961 veryH3966 beautiful;

3and DavidH1732 sentH7971 and inquired after the womanH802. And one saidH559, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughterH1323 of EliamH463, the wifeH802 of Urijah the HittiteH2850?

4And DavidH1732 sentH7971 messengersH4397, and tookH3947 her; and she cameH935 in to him, and he layH7901 with her; and she had purified herself from her uncleannessH2932; and she returnedH7725 to her houseH1004.
