2 Samuel 11:19 In-Context

17 And the men of the town went out and had a fight with Joab: and a number of David's men came to their death in the fight, and with them Uriah the Hittite.
18 Then Joab sent David news of everything which had taken place in the war:
19 And he gave orders to the man who took the news, saying, After you have given the king all the news about the war,
20 If the king is angry and says, Why did you go so near the town for the fight? was it not certain that their archers would be on the wall?
21 Who put Abimelech, the son of Jerubbaal, to death? did not a woman send a great stone down on him from the wall, putting him to death at Thebez? why did you go so near the wall? Then say to him, Your servant Uriah the Hittite is among the dead.
