14 Venida la mañana, escribió David á Joab una carta, la cual envió por mano de Uría.
15 Y escribió en la carta, diciendo: Poned á Uría delante de la fuerza de la batalla, y desamparadle, para que sea herido y muera.
16 Así fué que cuando Joab cercó la ciudad, puso á Uría en el lugar donde sabía que estaban los hombres más valientes.
17 Y saliendo luego los de la ciudad, pelearon con Joab, y cayeron algunos del pueblo de los siervos de David; y murió también Uría Hetheo.
18 Entonces envió Joab, é hizo saber á David todos los negocios de la guerra.
