By David
the Holy Bible

--2 Samuel--

And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent [it] by the hand of Uriah. (11:14)

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. (11:15)

And it came to pass, when Joab observed the city, that he assigned Uriah unto a place where he knew that valiant men [were]. (11:16)

And the men of the city went out, and fought with Joab: and there fell [some] of the people of the servants of David; and Uriah the Hittite died also. (11:17)

Wherefore hast thou despised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in his sight? thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and hast taken his wife [to be] thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon. (12:9)

--Psalms--

Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness (51:14)
