2 Samuel 11:2-5

Holman Christian Standard Bible

² One evening David got up from his bed and strolled around on the roof of the palace. From the roof he saw a woman bathing—a very beautiful woman. ³ So David sent someone to inquire about her, and he reported, “This is Bathsheba,^(A) daughter of Eliam and wife of Uriah^(B) the Hittite.”^[a]

⁴ David sent messengers to get her, and when she came to him, he slept with her. Now she had just been purifying herself from her uncleanness.^(C) Afterward, she returned home. ⁵ The woman conceived and sent word to inform David: “I am pregnant.”
