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.
18. Then Joab sent, and told David all things concerning the battle.
19. And he charged the messenger, saying: When thou hast told all the words of the battle to the king,
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?
