And he wrote in the letter, saying, Set ye Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten, and die.

And in the letter he said, Take care to put Uriah in the very front of the line, where the fighting is most violent, and go back from him, so that he may be overcome and put to death.

Και εγραψεν εν τη επιστολη, λεγων, Θεσατε τον Ουριαν απεναντι της σκληροτερας μαχης· επειτα συρθητε απ' αυτου, δια να κτυπηθη και να αποθανη.

And he wrote in the letter, saying, Set ye Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten, and die.
