王若发怒，问你说，你们打仗为什么挨近城墙呢。岂不知敌人必从城上射箭吗。
And if so be that the king's wrath arise, and he say unto thee, Wherefore approached ye so nigh unto the city when ye did fight? knew ye not that they would shoot from the wall?
使者起身，来见大卫，照着约押所吩咐他的话奏告大卫。
So the messenger went, and came and shewed David all that Joab had sent him for.
使者对大卫说，敌人强过我们，出到郊野与我们打仗，我们追杀他们，直到城门口。
And the messenger said unto David, Surely the men prevailed against us, and came out unto us into the field, and we were upon them even unto the entering of the gate.
射箭的从城上射王的仆人，射死几个，赫人乌利亚也死了。
And the shooters shot from off the wall upon thy servants; and some of the king's servants be dead, and thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.
王向使者说，你告诉约押说，不要因这事愁闷，刀剑或吞灭这人或吞灭那人，没有一定的。你只管竭力攻城，将城倾覆。可以用这话勉励约押。
Then David said unto the messenger, Thus shalt thou say unto Joab, Let not this thing displease thee, for the sword devoureth one as well as another: make thy battle more strong against the city, and overthrow it: and encourage thou him.
乌利亚的妻听见丈夫乌利亚死了，就为他哀哭。
And when the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she mourned for her husband.
哀哭的日子过了，大卫差人将她接到宫里，她就作了大卫的妻，给大卫生了一个儿子。但大卫所行的这事，耶和华甚不喜悦。
And when the mourning was past, David sent and fetched her to his house, and she became his wife, and bare him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased the LORD.
所罗门有妃七百，都是公主。还有嫔三百。这些妃嫔诱惑他的心。
And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart.
所罗门年老的时候，他的妃嫔诱惑他的心去随从别神，不效法他父亲大卫诚诚实实地顺服耶和华他的神。
For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father.
所罗门行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，不效法他父亲大卫专心顺从耶和华。
And Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD, and went not fully after the LORD, as did David his father.
