highlighted 2 Samuel 11:3-27 NASB
Now when they told David, saying, "Uriah did not go down to his house," David said to Uriah, "Have you not come from a journey? Why did you not go down to your house?"Uriah said to David, "aThe ark and Israel and Judah are staying in temporary shelters, and my lord Joab and bthe servants of my lord are camping in the open field. Shall I then go to my house to eat and to drink and to lie with my wife? By your life and the life of your soul, I will not do this thing."Then David said to Uriah, "aStay here today also, and tomorrow I will let you go." So Uriah remained in Jerusalem that day and the next.Now David called him, and he ate and drank before him, and he amade him drunk; and in the evening he went out to lie on his bed bwith his lord's servants, but he did not go down to his house.Now in the morning David awrote a letter to Joab and sent it by the hand of Uriah.aHe had written in the letter, saying, "Place Uriah in the front line of the fiercest battle and withdraw from him, bso that he may be struck down and die."So it was as Joab kept watch on the city, that he put Uriah at the place where he knew there were valiant men.The men of the city went out and fought against Joab, and some of the people among David's servants fell; and aUriah the Hittite also died.Then Joab sent and reported to David all the events of the war.He charged the messenger, saying, "When you have finished telling all the events of the war to the king,and if it happens that the king's wrath rises and he says to you, 'Why did you go so near to the city to fight? Did you not know that they would shoot from the wall?'Who astruck down Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? Did not a woman throw an upper millstone on him from the wall so that he died at Thebez? Why did you go so near the wall?'--then you shall say, 'Your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.'"So the messenger departed and came and reported to David all that Joab had sent him to tell.The messenger said to David, "The men prevailed against us and came out against us in the field, but we pressed them as far as the entrance of the gate."Moreover, the archers shot at your servants from the wall; so some of the king's servants are dead, and your servant Uriah the Hittite is also dead."Then David said to the messenger, "Thus you shall say to Joab, 'Do not let this thing displease you, for the sword devours one as well as another; make your battle against the city stronger and overthrow it'; and so encourage him."Now when the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, ashe mourned for her husband.When the time of mourning was over, David sent and brought her to his house and ashe became his wife; then she bore him a son. But bthe thing that David had done was evil in the sight of the Lord.So David sent and inquired about the woman. And one said, "Is this not aBathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of bUriah the Hittite?"David sent messengers and took her, and when she came to him, ahe lay with her; band when she had purified herself from her uncleanness, she returned to her house.The woman conceived; and she sent and told David, and said, "aI am pregnant."Then David sent to Joab, saying, "Send me Uriah the Hittite." So Joab sent Uriah to David.When Uriah came to him, aDavid asked concerning the welfare of Joab and the people and the state of the war.Then David said to Uriah, "Go down to your house, and awash your feet." And Uriah went out of the king's house, and a present from the king was sent out after him.But Uriah slept aat the door of the king's house with all the servants of his lord, and did not go down to his house.

The Lord looked at him and said, "aGo in this your strength and deliver Israel from the hand of Midian. Have I not sent you?"aHe said to Him, "O Lord, how shall I deliver Israel?

highlighted Judges 6:17-40 NASB
So Gideon said to Him, "If now I have found favor in Your sight, then show me aa sign that it is You who speak with me."Please do not depart from here, until I come back to You, and bring out my offering and lay it before You." And He said, "I will remain until you return."Then Gideon went in and aprepared a young goat and unleavened bread from an ephah of flour; he put the meat in a basket and the broth in a pot, and brought them out to him under the oak and presented them.The angel of God said to him, "Take the meat and the unleavened bread and lay them on this rock, and pour out the broth." And he did so.Then the angel of the Lord put out the end of the staff that was in his hand and touched the meat and the unleavened bread; and afire sprang up from the rock and consumed the meat and the unleavened bread. Then the angel of the Lord vanished from his sight.aWhen Gideon saw that he was the angel of the Lord, he said, "Alas, O Lord GOD! For now I have seen the angel of the Lord face to face."The Lord said to him, "Peace to you, do not fear; you shall not die."Then Gideon built an altar there to the Lord and named it The Lord is Peace. To this day it is still ain Ophrah of the Abiezrites.Now on the same night the Lord said to him, "Take your father's bull and a second bull seven years old, and pull down the altar of Baal which belongs to your father, and cut down the aAsherah that is beside it;and build an altar to the Lord your God on the top of this stronghold in an orderly manner, and take a second bull and offer a burnt offering with the wood of the Asherah which you shall cut down."Then Gideon took ten men of his servants and did as the Lord had spoken to him; and because he was too afraid of his father's household and the men of the city to do it by day, he did it by night.When the men of the city arose early in the morning, behold, the altar of Baal was torn down, and the Asherah which was beside it was cut down, and the second bull was offered on the altar which had been built.They said to one another, "Who did this thing?" And when they searched about and inquired, they said, "Gideon the son of Joash did this thing."Then the men of the city said to Joash, "Bring out your son, that he may die, for he has torn down the altar of Baal, and indeed, he has cut down the Asherah which was beside it."But Joash said to all who stood against him, "Will you contend for Baal, or will you deliver him? Whoever will plead for him shall be put to death by morning. If he is a god, let him contend for himself, because someone has torn down his altar."Therefore on that day he named him aJerubbaal, that is to say, "Let Baal contend against him," because he had torn down his altar.Then all the Midianites and the Amalekites and the sons of the east assembled themselves; and they crossed over and camped in athe valley of Jezreel.So athe Spirit of the Lord came upon Gideon; and he bblew a trumpet, and the Abiezrites were called together to follow him.He sent messengers throughout Manasseh, and they also were called together to follow him; and he sent messengers to Asher, aZebulun, and Naphtali, and bthey came up to meet them.Then Gideon said to God, "aIf You will deliver Israel through me, as You have spoken,behold, I will put a fleece of wool on the threshing floor. If there is dew on the fleece only, and it is dry on all the ground, then I will know that You will deliver Israel through me, as You have spoken."And it was so. When he arose early the next morning and squeezed the fleece, he drained the dew from the fleece, a bowl full of water.Then Gideon said to God, "aDo not let Your anger burn against me that I may speak once more; please let me make a test once more with the fleece, let it now be dry only on the fleece, and let there be dew on all the ground."God did so that night; for it was dry only on the fleece, and dew was on all the ground.
