So in the morning David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it by the hand of Uriah.

He had written in the letter the following: “Station Uriah on the front line of the fiercest battle and pull back from him, so that he may be struck and killed.”

So it was as Joab kept watch on the city, that he stationed Uriah at the place where he knew there were valiant men.

And the men of the city went out and fought against Joab, and some of the people among David’s servants fell; and Uriah the Hittite also died.

Then Joab sent a messenger and reported to David all the events of the war.

He ordered the messenger, saying, “When you have finished telling all the events of the war to the king,

then it shall be that if the king’s wrath rises and he says to you, ‘Why did you move against the city to fight? Did you not know that they would shoot from the wall?

Who struck Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? Did a woman not throw an upper millstone on him from the wall so that he died at Thebez? Why did you move against the wall?’—then you shall say, ‘Your servant Uriah the Hittite also died.’”

아침이 되매 다윗이 편지를 써서 우리아의 손에 들려 요압에게 보내니

So in the morning David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it by the hand of Uriah.

그 편지에 써서 이르기를 너희가 우리아를 맹렬한 싸움에 앞세워 두고 너희는 뒤로 물러가서 그로 맞아 죽게 하라 하였더라

He had written in the letter the following: “Station Uriah on the front line of the fiercest battle and pull back from him, so that he may be struck and killed.”

요압이 그 성을 살펴 용사들이 있는 것을 아는 그 곳에 우리아를 두니

So it was as Joab kept watch on the city, that he stationed Uriah at the place where he knew there were valiant men.

그 성 사람들이 나와서 요압과 더불어 싸울 때에 다윗의 부하 중 몇 사람이 엎드러지고 헷 사람 우리아도 죽으니라

And the men of the city went out and fought against Joab, and some of the people among David’s servants fell; and Uriah the Hittite also died.

요압이 사람을 보내 그 전쟁의 모든 일을 다윗에게 보고할새

Then Joab sent a messenger and reported to David all the events of the war.

그 전령에게 명령하여 이르되 전쟁의 모든 일을 네가 왕께 보고하기를 마친 후에

He ordered the messenger, saying, “When you have finished telling all the events of the war to the king,

혹시 왕이 노하여 네게 말씀하기를 너희가 어찌하여 성에 그처럼 가까이 가서 싸웠느냐 그들이 성 위에서 쏠 줄을 알지 못하였느냐

then it shall be that if the king’s wrath rises and he says to you, ‘Why did you move against the city to fight? Did you not know that they would shoot from the wall?

여룹베셋의 아들 아비멜렉을 쳐죽인 자가 누구냐 여인 하나가 성에서 맷돌 위짝을 그 위에 던지매 그가 데벳스에서 죽지 아니하였느냐 어찌하여 성에 가까이 갔더냐 하시거든 네가 말하기를 왕의 종 헷 사람 우리아도 죽었나이다 하라

Who struck Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? Did a woman not throw an upper millstone on him from the wall so that he died at Thebez? Why did you move against the wall?’—then you shall say, ‘Your servant Uriah the Hittite also died.’”
