2 Samuel 11:25-27

25Then DavidH1732 saidH559 to the messengerH4397, “ThusH3541 you shall sayH559 to JoabH3097, ‘Do not let thisH2088 thingH1697 1displeaseH7489H5869 you, for the swordH2719 devoursH398 oneH2088 as well as anotherH2088; makeH2388 your battleH4421 againstH413 the cityH5892 strongerH2388 and overthrowH2040 it’; and so encourageH2388 him.”

26Now when the wifeH802 of UriahH223 heardH8085 that UriahH223 her husbandH376 was deadH4191, 2she mournedH5594 for her husbandH1167. 27When the time of mourningH60 was overH5674, DavidH1732 sentH7971 and 3broughtH622 her to his houseH1004 and 4she becameH1961 his wifeH802; then she boreH3205 him a sonH1121. But 5the thingH1697 that DavidH1732 had doneH6213 was evilH7489 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068.
