| 1 | And it came to pass at the return of the year, at the time when kings go forth to war, that David sent Joab and his servants with him, and all Israel, and they spoiled the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabba: but David remained in Jerusalem. | Factum est autem, vertente anno, eo tempore quo solent reges ad bella procedere, misit David Ioab, et servos suos cum eo, et universum Israël, et vastaverunt filios Ammon, et obsederunt Rabba: David autem remansit in Ierusalem. | Καὶ ἐγένετο, ἐπιστρέψαντος τοῦ ἐνιαυτοῦ εἰς τὸν καιρὸν τῆς ἐξοδίας τῶν βασιλέων, καὶ ἀπέστειλε Δαυὶδ τὸν Ἰωὰβ, καὶ τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ μετʼ αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὸν πάντα Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ διέφθειραν τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἀμμών· καὶ διεκάθισαν ἐπὶ Ῥαββάθ· καὶ Δαυὶδ ἐκάθισεν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ. |
| 2 | In the mean time it happened that David arose from his bed after noon, and walked upon the roof of the king’s house: and he saw from the roof of his house a woman washing herself, over against him: and the woman was very beautiful. | Dum haec agerentur, accidit ut surgeret David de strato suo post meridiem, et deambularet in solario domus regiae: viditque mulierem se lavantem ex adverso super solarium suum: erat autem mulier pulchra valde. | Καὶ ἐγένετο πρὸς ἑσπέραν, καὶ ἀνέστη Δαυὶδ ἀπὸ τῆς κοίτης αὐτοῦ, καὶ περιεπάτει ἐπὶ τοῦ δώματος τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ εἶδε γυναῖκα λουομένην ἀπὸ τοῦ δώματος, καὶ ἡ γυνὴ καλὴ τῷ εἴδει σφόδρα. |
| 3 | And the king sent, and inquired who the woman was. And it was told him, that she was Bethsabee the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Urias the Hethite. | Misit ergo rex, et requisivit quae esset mulier. Nuntiatumque est ei quod ipsa esset Bethsabee filia Eliam, uxor Uriae Hethaei. | Καὶ ἀπέστειλε Δαυὶδ, καὶ ἐζήτησε τὴν γυναῖκα, καὶ εἶπεν, οὐχὶ αὕτη Βηρσαβεὲ θυγάτηρ Ἐλιὰβ γυνὴ Οὐρίου τοῦ Χετταίου; |
| 4 | And David sent messengers, and took her, and she came in to him, and he slept with her: and presently she was purified from her uncleanness: | Missis itaque David nuntiis, tulit eam: quae cum ingressa esset ad illum, dormivit cum ea: statimque sanctificata est ab immunditia sua, | Καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Δαυὶδ ἀγγέλους, καὶ ἔλαβεν αὐτὴν, καὶ εἰσῆλθε πρὸς αὐτὴν, καὶ ἐκοιμήθη μετʼ αὐτῆς· καὶ αὕτη ἁγιαζομένη ἀπὸ ἀκαθαρσίας αὐτῆς, καὶ ἀπέστρεψεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτῆς. |
| 5 | And she returned to her house having conceived. And she sent and told David, and said: I have conceived. | et reversa est domum suam concepto foetu. Mittensque nuntiavit David, et ait: Concepi. | Καὶ ἐν γαστρὶ ἔλαβεν ἡ γυνή· καὶ ἀποστείλασα ἀπήγγειλε τῷ Δαυὶδ, καὶ εἶπεν, ἐγώ εἰμι ἐν γαστρὶ ἔχω. |
| 6 | And David sent to Joab, saying: Send me Urias the Hethite. And Joab sent Urias to David. | Misit autem David ad Ioab, dicens: Mitte ad me Uriam Hethaeum. Misitque Ioab Uriam ad David. | Καὶ ἀπέστειλε Δαυὶδ πρὸς Ἰωὰβ, λέγων, ἀπόστειλον πρὸς μὲ τὸν Οὐρίαν τὸν Χετταῖον· καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ἰωὰβ τὸν Οὐρίαν πρὸς Δαυίδ. |
| 7 | And Urias came to David. And David asked how Joab did, and the people, and how the war was carried on. | Et venit Urias ad David. Quaesivitque David quam recte ageret Ioab et populus, et quomodo administraretur bellum. | Καὶ παραγίνεται Οὐρίας καὶ εἰσῆλθε πρὸς αὐτὸν, καὶ ἐπηρώτησε Δαυὶδ εἰς εἰρήνην Ἰωὰβ, καὶ εἰς εἰρήνην τοῦ λαοῦ, καὶ εἰς εἰρήνην τοῦ πολέμου. |
| 8 | And David said to Urias: Go into thy house, and wash thy feet. And Urias went out from the king’s house, and there went out after him a mess of meat from the king. | Et dixit David ad Uriam: Vade in domum tuam, et lava pedes tuos. Et egressus est Urias de domo regis, secutusque est eum cibus regius. | Καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ τῷ Οὐρίᾳ, Κατάβηθι εἰς τὸν οἶκόν σου, καὶ νίψαι τοὺς πόδας σου· καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Οὐρίας ἐξ οἴκου τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ ἄρσις τοῦ βασιλέως. |
| 9 | But Urias slept before the gate of the king’s house, with the other servants of his lord, and went not down to his own house. | Dormivit autem Urias ante portam domus regiae cum aliis servis domini sui, et non descendit ad domum suam. | Καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Οὐρίας παρὰ τῇ θύρᾳ τοῦ βασιλέως μετὰ τῶν δούλων τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐ κατέβη εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ. |
| 10 | And it was told David by some that said: Urias went not to his house. And David said to Urias: Didst thou not come from thy journey? why didst thou not go down to thy house? | Nuntiatumque est David a dicentibus: Non ivit Urias in domum suam. Et ait David ad Uriam: Numquid non de via venisti? quare non descendisti in domum tuam? | Καὶ ἀνήγγειλαν τῷ Δαυὶδ, λέγοντες, ὅτι Οὐ κατέβη Οὐρίας εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ· καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ πρὸς Οὐρίαν, οὐχὶ ἐξ ὁδοῦ σὺ ἔρχῃ; τί ὅτι οὐ κατέβης εἰς τὸν οἶκόν σου; |
| 11 | And Urias said to David: The ark of God and Israel and Juda dwell in tents, and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord abide upon the face of the earth: and shall I go into my house, to eat and to drink, and to sleep with my wife? By thy welfare and by the welfare of thy soul I will not do this thing. | Et ait Urias ad David: Arca Dei et Israël et Iuda habitant in papilionibus, et dominus meus Ioab et servi domini mei super faciem terrae manent: et ego ingrediar domum meam, ut comedam et bibam, et dormiam cum uxore mea? Per salutem tuam, et per salutem animae tuae, non faciam rem hanc. | Καὶ εἶπεν Οὐρίας πρὸς Δαυὶδ, ἡ κιβωτὸς, καὶ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ Ἰούδας κατοικοῦσιν ἐν σκηναῖς, καὶ ὁ κύριός μου Ἰωὰβ, καὶ οἱ δοῦλοι τοῦ κυρίου μου ἐπὶ πρόσωπον τοῦ ἀγροῦ παρεμβάλλουσι, καὶ ἐγὼ εἰσελεύσομαι εἰς τὸν οἶκόν μου τοῦ φαγεῖν, καὶ πιεῖν, καὶ κοιμηθῆναι μετὰ τῆς γυναικός μου; πῶς; ζῇ ἡ ψυχή σου, εἰ ποιήσω τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο. |
| 12 | Then David said to Urias: Tarry here today, and tomorrow I will send thee away. Urias tarried in Jerusalem that day and the next. | Ait ergo David ad Uriam: Mane hic etiam hodie, et cras dimittam te. Mansit Urias in Ierusalem in die illa et altera: | Καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ πρὸς Οὐρίαν, κάθισον ἐνταῦθα καί γε σήμερον, καὶ αὔριον ἐξαποστελῶ σε· καὶ ἐκάθισεν Οὐρίας ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ καὶ τῇ ἐπαύριον. |
| 13 | And David called him to eat and to drink before him, and he made him drunk: and he went out in the evening, and slept on his couch with the servants of his lord, and went not down into his house. | et vocavit eum David ut comederet coram se et biberet, et inebriavit eum: qui egressus vespere, dormivit in strato suo cum servis domini sui, et in domum suam non descendit. | Καὶ ἐκάλεσεν αὐτὸν Δαυὶδ, καὶ ἔφαγεν ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔπιε, καὶ ἐμέθυσεν αὐτὸν, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἑσπέρας τοῦ κοιμηθῆναι ἐπὶ τῆς κοίτης αὐτοῦ μετὰ τῶν δούλων τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ οὐ κατέβη. |
| 14 | And when the morning was come, David wrote a letter to Joab: and sent it by the hand of Urias, | Factum est ergo mane, et scripsit David epistolam ad Ioab: misitque per manum Uriae, | Καὶ ἐγένετο πρωῒ, καὶ ἔγραψε Δαυὶδ βιβλίον πρὸς Ἰωὰβ, καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ἐν χειρὶ Οὐρίου. |
| 15 | Writing in the letter: Set ye Urias in the front of the battle, where the fight is strongest: and leave ye him, that he may be wounded and die. | scribens in epistola: Ponite Uriam ex adverso belli, ubi fortissimum est praelium: et derelinquite eum, ut percussus intereat. | Καὶ ἔγραψεν ἐν βιβλίῳ, λέγων, εἰσάγαγε τὸν Οὐρίαν ἐξεναντίας τοῦ πολέμου τοῦ κραταιοῦ, καὶ ἀποστραφήσεσθε ἀπὸ ὄπισθεν αὐτοῦ, καὶ πληγήσεται καὶ ἀποθανεῖται. |
| 16 | Wherefore as Joab was besieging the city, he put Urias in the place where he knew the bravest men were. | Igitur cum Ioab obsideret urbem, posuit Uriam in loco ubi sciebat viros esse fortissimos. | Καὶ ἐγενήθη ἐν τῷ φυλάσσειν Ἰωὰβ ἐπὶ τὴν πόλιν, καὶ ἔθηκε τὸν Οὐρίαν εἰς τὸν τόπον οὗ ᾔδει ὅτι ἄνδρες δυνάμεως ἐκεῖ. |
| 17 | And the men coming out of the city, fought against Joab, and there fell some of the people of the servants of David, and Urias the Hethite was killed also. | Egressique viri de civitate, bellabant adversum Ioab, et ceciderunt de populo servorum David, et mortuus est etiam Urias Hethaeus. | Καὶ ἐξῆλθον οἱ ἄνδρες τῆς πόλεως, καὶ ἐπολέμουν μετὰ Ἰωάβ· καὶ ἔπεσαν ἐκ τοῦ λαοῦ ἐκ τῶν δούλων Δαυὶδ, καὶ ἀπέθανε καί γε Οὐρίας ὁ Χετταῖος. |
| 18 | Then Joab sent, and told David all things concerning the battle. | Misit itaque Ioab, et nuntiavit David omnia verba praelii: | Καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ἰωὰβ, καὶ ἀπήγγειλε τῷ Δαυὶδ πάντας τοὺς λόγους τοῦ πολέμου λαλῆσαι πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα· |
| 19 | And he charged the messenger, saying: When thou hast told all the words of the battle to the king, | praecepitque nuntio, dicens: Cum compleveris universos sermones belli ad regem, | καὶ ἐνετείλατο τῷ ἀγγέλῳ, λέγων, ἐν τῷ συντελέσαι πάντας τοὺς λόγους τοῦ πολέμου λαλῆσαι πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα, |
| 20 | If thou see him to be angry, and he shall say: Why did you approach so near to the wall to fight? knew you not that many darts are thrown from above off the wall? | si eum videris indignari, et dixerit: Quare accessistis ad murum, ut praeliaremini? an ignorabatis quod multa desuper ex muro tela mittantur? | καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν ἀναβῇ ὁ θυμὸς τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ εἴπῃ σοι, τί ὅτι ἠγγίσατε πρὸς τὴν πόλιν πολεμῆσαι; οὐκ ᾔδειτε ὅτι τοξεύσουσιν ἀπάνωθεν τοῦ τείχους; |
| 21 | Who killed Abimelech the son of Jerobaal? did not a woman cast a piece of a millstone upon him from the wall, and slew him in Thebes? Why did you go near the wall? Thou shalt say: Thy servant Urias the Hethite is also slain. | Quis percussit Abimelech filium Ierobaal? nonne mulier misit super eum fragmen molae de muro, et interfecit eum in Thebes? quare iuxta murum accessistis? dices: Etiam servus tuus Urias Hethaeus occubuit. | Τίς ἐπάταξε τὸν Ἀβιμέλεχ υἱὸν Ἱεροβάαλ υἱοῦ Νήρ; οὐχὶ γυνὴ ἔῤῥιψε κλάσμα μύλου ἐπʼ αὐτὸν ἀπὸ ἄνωθεν τοῦ τείχους, καὶ ἀπέθανεν ἐν Θαμασί; ἱνατί προσηγάγετε πρὸς τὸ τεῖχος; καὶ ἐρεῖς, καί γε ὁ δοῦλός σου Οὐρίας ὁ Χετταῖος ἀπέθανε. |
| 22 | So the messenger departed, and came and told David all that Joab had commanded him. | Abiit ergo nuntius, et venit, et narravit David omnia quae ei praeceperat Ioab. | Καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὁ ἄγγελος Ἰωὰβ πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ παρεγένετο καὶ ἀπήγγειλε τῷ Δαυὶδ πάντα ὅσα ἀπήγγειλεν αὐτῷ Ἰωὰβ, πάντα τὰ ῥήματα τοῦ πολέμου· καὶ ἐθυμώθη Δαυὶδ πρὸς Ἰωὰβ, καὶ εἶπε πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον, ἱνατί προσηγάγετε πρὸς τὴν πόλιν τοῦ πολεμῆσαι; οὐκ ᾔδειτε ὅτι πληγήσεσθε ἀπὸ τοῦ τείχους; τίς ἐπάταξε τὸν Ἀβιμέλεχ υἱὸν Ἱεροβάαλ; οὐχὶ γυνὴ ἔῤῥιψεν ἐπʼ αὐτὸν κλάσμα μύλου ἀπὸ τοῦ τείχους, καὶ ἀπέθανεν ἐν Θαμασί; ἱνατί προσηγάγετε πρὸς τὸ τεῖχος; |
| 23 | And the messenger said to David: The men prevailed against us, and they came out to us into the field: and we vigorously charged and pursued them even to the gate of the city. | Et dixit nuntius ad David: Praevaluerunt adversum nos viri, et egressi sunt ad nos in agrum: nos autem facto impetu persecuti eos sumus usque ad portam civitatis. | Καὶ εἶπεν ὁ ἄγγελος πρὸς Δαυὶδ, ὅτι ἐκραταίωσαν ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς οἱ ἄνδρες, καὶ ἐξῆλθον ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς εἰς τὸν ἀγρὸν, καὶ ἐγενήθημεν ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς ἕως τῆς θύρας τῆς πύλης. |
| 24 | And the archers shot their arrows at thy servants from off the wall above: and some of the king’s servants are slain, and thy servant Urias the Hethite is also dead. | Et direxerunt iacula sagittarii ad servos tuos ex muro desuper, mortuique sunt de servis regis: quin etiam servus tuus Urias Hethaeus mortuus est. | Καὶ ἐτόξευσαν οἱ τοξεύοντες πρὸς τοὺς παῖδάς σου ἀπάνωθεν τοῦ τείχους, καὶ ἀπέθανον τῶν παίδων τοῦ βασιλέως, καί γε ὁ δοῦλός σου Οὐρίας ὁ Χετταῖος ἀπέθανε. |
| 25 | And David said to the messenger: Thus shalt thou say to Joab: Let not this thing discourage thee: for various is the event of war: and sometimes one, sometimes another is consumed by the sword: encourage thy warriors against The city, and exhort them that thou mayest overthrow it. | Et dixit David ad nuntium: Haec dices Ioab: Non te frangat ista res: varius enim eventus est belli, nunc hunc, et nunc illum consumit gladius: conforta bellatores tuos adversus urbem ut destruas eam, et exhortare eos. | Καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον, τάδε ἐρεῖς πρὸς Ἰωάβ, μὴ πονηρὸν ἔστω ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς σου τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο, ὅτι ποτὲ μὲν οὕτως καὶ ποτὲ οὕτως φάγεται ἡ μάχαιρα· κραταίωσον τὸν πόλεμόν σου εἰν τὴν πόλιν, καὶ κατάσπασον αὐτὴν, καὶ κραταίωσον αὐτήν. |
| 26 | And the wife of Urias heard that Urias her husband was dead, and she mourned for him. | Audivit autem uxor Uriae quod mortuus esset Urias vir suus, et planxit eum. | Καὶ ἤκουσεν ἡ γυνὴ Οὐρίου ὅτι ἀπέθανεν Οὐρίας ὁ ἀνὴρ αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐκόψατο τὸν ἄνδρα αὐτῆς. |
| 27 | And the mourning being over, David sent and brought her into his house, and she became his wife, and she bore him a son: and this thing which David had done, was displeasing to the Lord. | Transacto autem luctu, misit David, et introduxit eam in domum suam, et facta est ei uxor, peperitque ei filium: et displicuit verbum hoc quod fecerat David, coram Domino. | Καὶ διῆλθε τὸ πένθος, καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Δαυὶδ, καὶ συνήγαγεν αὐτὴν εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐγενήθη αὐτῷ εἰς γυναῖκα, καὶ ἔτεκεν αὐτῷ υἱόν· καὶ πονηρὸν ἐφάνη τὸ ῥῆμα ὃ ἐποίησε Δαυὶδ ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς Κυρίου. |
