2 Samuel 11:24-25

Context
11:24 Then the archers shot at your servants from the wall and some of the king’s soldiers 1  died. Your servant Uriah the Hittite is also dead.” 11:25 David said to the messenger, “Tell Joab, ‘Don’t let this thing upset you. 2  There is no way to anticipate whom the sword will cut down. 3  Press the battle against the city and conquer 4  it.’ Encourage him with these words.” 5 

1 tc The translation follows the Qere (“your servants”) rather than the Kethib (“your servant”).

2 tn Heb “let not this matter be evil in your eyes.”

3 tn Heb “according to this and according to this the sword devours.”

4 tn Heb “overthrow.”

5 tn The Hebrew text does not have “with these words.” They are supplied in the translation for clarity and for stylistic reasons.
