And the shooters shot from off the wall upon thy servants; and some of the king's servants be dead, and thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.

Verse 24 is found in chapter 11 of 2 Samuel. The military report reaches David, and after receiving news of Uriah’s death, the king takes Bathsheba as his wife. Superficially, David appears to have solved the problem, but the narrator concludes with a decisive evaluation: what David had done displeased the Lord. This statement shifts judgment from political perception to the divine perspective. Human concealment does not remove moral responsibility before God.

und die Schützen schossen, von der Mauer, auf deine Knechte und töteten etliche von des Königs Knechten; dazu ist Uria, der Hethiter, auch tot.
Pero los flecheros tiraron contra tus siervos desde el muro, y murieron algunos de los siervos del rey; y murió también tu siervo Uría Hetheo.
les archers ont tiré du haut de la muraille sur tes serviteurs, et plusieurs des serviteurs du roi ont été tués, et ton serviteur Urie, le Héthien, est mort aussi.
Allora gli arcieri saettarono contro a’ tuoi servitori d’in sul muro; e alcuni de’ servitori del re son morti; Uria Hitteo, tuo servitore, è morto anch’esso.
Então os flecheiros atiraram contra os teus servos desde o alto do muro, e morreram alguns dos servos do rei; e também morreu o teu servo Urias, o heteu.
弓箭手從城牆上射你的僕人,射死幾個王的僕人,你的僕人 赫 人 烏利亞 也死了。」
