2 Samuel 11:23-25

Living Bible

²³ “The enemy came out against us,” he said, “and as we chased them back to the city gates, ²⁴ the men on the wall attacked us; and some of our men were killed, and Uriah the Hittite is dead too.”

²⁵ “Well, tell Joab not to be discouraged,” David said. “The sword kills one as well as another!^[a] Fight harder next time, and conquer the city; tell him he is doing well.”
