6. So David sent a message to Joab, “Send me Uriah the Hittite.” So Joab sent Uriah to David.
7. When Uriah came to him, David asked him how Joab was, how the troops fared, and how the war was going.
8. Then David said to Uriah, “Go down to your house and wash your feet.” When Uriah left the royal palace, a present from the king followed him.
9. But Uriah slept at the door of the royal palace with all his master’s servants, and did not go down to his house.
